ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK 
In "All About Love: New Visions" by bell hooks, the author explores the concept of love, its importance in society, and the reasons behind its absence in modern culture. The book critiques romantic love as a destructive idea that prevents genuine connection, while advocating for a more conscious approach to love. The main theme revolves around the idea that true love requires effort, commitment, and a deep understanding of oneself and others. 
  
The author emphasizes the significance of community and self-love, highlighting how materialism and patriarchal norms contribute to lovelessness. She stresses the importance of choosing to love rather than falling in love, as a way to assume accountability and personal growth. Throughout the book, the author analyzes love from a spiritual and philosophical standpoint. The journey to finding true love is shown as a process of constant learning and self-discovery, and not as a passive experience.
