A Lover'S Discourse Av Roland Barthes

<p>‘May be the most detailed, painstaking anatomy of desire that we are ever likely to see or need again... An ecstatic celebration of love and language’ <i>Washington Post</i><br><br>The language we use when we are in love is not a language we speak. It is a language addressed to ourselves and to our imaginary beloved. It is a language of solitude, of mythology, of what Barthes calls an ''image repertoire''. <br><br>Reviving the notion of the amorous subject beyond psychological or clinical enterprises, Barthes’ <i>A Lover’s Discourse</i> is a book for everyone who has ever been in love, or indeed, thought themselves to be immune to its power.</p>
