Love Voltaire Us Apart
What would Kant`s sexts look like? How would Jean-Paul Sartre and Simone de Beauvoir break up? What would Confucius think of Tinder?Love Voltaire Us Apart is a hilarious spoof relationship guide with a philosophical edge, made up of philosophers` love letters, advice columns and breakup letters.From Confucius learning the Golden Rules of dating to Simone de Beauvoir considering bangs after breaking up with Jean-Paul Sartre, comedy writer Julia Edelman views the love lives of prominent philosophers through a clever and contemporary lens. She points out that Margaret Fuller is the โ€Carrieโ€ of transcendentalism, and Nietzsche will always find a way to make a bad breakup infinitely worse.โ€Getting Meta(Physical)-Who is Your Philosopher Crush?โ€ is the only quiz you`ll need to find your soul mate, and โ€How To Know if Your Man is Writing a Manifestoโ€ will show you how to avoid losing your relationship to imminent revolution.Based on Edelman`s New Yorker article, โ€Excerpts from Philosophers` Breakup Letters Throughout Historyโ€, Love Voltaire Us Apart is funny, smart, refreshingly original, and brought to life with charming illustrations by Hallie Bateman.
