This Modern Love
Ratings4
Average rating4.3
This Modern Love is a unique crowd-sourced book of letters, stories, and photographs about the state of modern romance by YouTuber Will Darbyshire. Seeking closure after a tough break-up, Will Darbyshire was driven to strike up an intimate conversation with his online audience. Posting a series of questions, Will asked his followers to share their innermost thoughts about their relationship experiences, in the form of hand-written letters, poems, photographs, and emails. After 6 months and over 15,000 heartfelt submissions later, from over 100 countries, This Modern Love collects these letters together to form a compendium of 21st century love, structured into the beginning, middle and end of a relationship. Tender, funny and cathartic, This Modern Love is a compelling portrait of individual desires, resentments and fears that reminds us that, whether we're in or out of love, we're not alone.

• Delicado, real (porque são histórias de pessoas físicas, não contos aleatórios) e talvez muito inteligente.
Acompanho o canal do Will há algum tempo e acompanhei o “making off” do livro. Estou extremamente feliz pelo resultado! Um pouco diferente do que eu esperava. Mas ainda assim, acho que comecei bem o ano.
In a way this was a beautiful book, even if it's more of a collage from different people, feelings, time in relationships. I could relate to other humans being, feel their joy, pains, sadness, happiness, ... While experiencing a break-up, this is a great remembrance that we're never truly alone in our feelings, but also that what one is searching will happen one day. In the meantime, this will help to move forward, evolve, and keep hoping :)
Cukup suka dengan konsep buku nya yang merupakan kumpulan surat-surat dari beberapa orang. Ada yang berupa surat panjang pendek yang semuanya bertemakan tentang “Modern Love”.
Bukunya sendiri dibagi menjadi 3 part, Beginning, middle dan end. Beginning menceritakan awal dari cinta yang dimulai dengan “fallin in love” with crush, middle part menceritakan “relationship” dan end berisikan the bitterness of broken heart 😭😭
Buku yang cocok dibaca sekali jalan kalau sedang nunggu jemputan/kendaran.
