"The Romantic Movement sheds light on the nature of relationships . . . The method of telling much and showing little produces a good deal of wit, cogency, and humor."—John Updike, The New Yorker
"A reader gets whiffs of Donald Barthelme, Julian Barnes, Woody Allen, the films of Eric Rohmer . . . Mr. De Botton borrows exuberantly, and well, from his forebears . . . therein lies the buoyant charm of the approach."—Lisa Zeidner, The New York Times Book Review
