Natalie Wynn (Contrapoints) mentioned Eros the Bittersweet by Anne Carson 2 times

I love Eros the Bittersweet! I've read that book at least twice all the way through, probably three times. Honestly it's really good, especially if you are, you know, in a stage of life where you're struggling with limerence. It's a great book about limerence.

Absence is the essential nature of erotic love. Because Eros is desire. And desire is lack. You want what you don't have. The essayist Anne Carson explores this idea in one of my favorite books, "Eros the Bittersweet".
