Features: This is a unique book that cannot be classified by traditional standards. The author attempts a highly neurotic "divergent" style of writing, blending speculation with direct demonstration. It is a "perspective from scattered points" and "zero-degree writing." Like a kaleidoscope: the author extracts colorful fragments of love experiences, refracting them into enigmatic arrangements under the reflective mirror of his philosophical speculation. The author reveals through corresponding forms of writing that lovers' chatter is merely various feelings, a few thoughts, untangling but still chaotic. In comparison, previous detailed and verbose analyses of love and lovers' words appear outdated and superficial—this is precisely what deconstructionism seeks to prove.
