Among bell hooks' most popular books, On Love is a unique text. With her usual insight and talent for popularization, the Afro-feminist author tackles a subject rarely addressed head-on in political theory. Defining love as an act rather than a feeling, bell hooks dismantles all the obstacles that patriarchal culture places in the way of healthy loving relationships and envisions an art of loving that is not limited to the thrill of attraction or simple tenderness. Drawing on moral philosophy and psychology, she attacks the sardonic cynicism that surrounds discussions about love and strives to restore the nobility of the possibility of love from a feminist perspective.
GLORIA JEAN WATKINS, known by her pen name BELL HOOKS, born in 1952, is an American intellectual, feminist, and activist. She has published more than thirty books and numerous articles, and has appeared in several documentary films. Translated into many languages, her works are considered among the most important on the subject in the United States and have been generating real enthusiasm in France for several years. Editions Divergences has already translated and published two of her books, Everyone Can Be a Feminist and The Will to Change.
