In *All About Love*, bell hooks reframes love as an active practice, and the result is one of the most readable, galvanising books in contemporary feminist nonfiction. Blending cultural criticism with personal reflection, hooks asks why so many of us can name desire, yet struggle to recognise care, respect and accountability as the foundation of real intimacy and community.
Rather than offering quick fixes, she traces how family life, schooling, work and popular culture teach us distorted lessons about what love is “supposed” to look like. With clarity and candour, hooks argues that learning to love is a skill—one that can be taught, chosen and lived, even in a divided society.
Perfect for readers drawn to social justice, psychology and philosophy, as well as book clubs and anyone rethinking relationships beyond romance.
Add this modern classic to your shelf and let it change the way you speak—and act—about love.
