Title: Terrifyingly Empty of Love
Review: If the author intended this to be a love story then this is a one star book. This is not a love story; it is a story of destitution. Henry and Claire seek each other, not with the desire to give (as authentic love does), but in a voracious attempt to fill themselves. The word choice and images in the book are ones of emptiness and consumption and not a fullness of love eager to give. Even after a life of "love" together, Henry is a naked man in a cage with nothing to give. Clare, after Henry's death, continues to shows her continuing emptiness by using her friend's husband as a new partner with whom to grope for filling. This book is really "A Treatise on Longing" but not on love.
