The Flames and Shadows of Romantic Love: An Essai

In today’s world we are constantly being told what love is, who we should give it to, and how we should give it. We are bombarded with so many opinions that our concept of love becomes more muddled than it was to begin with. Where did all of these opinions come from? What is real love? In this essai, author Ethan T. Marston—a gay Mormon—explores these questions as he looks at romantic love through the lenses of neurochemistry, anthropology, Christian theology, and his own experience.
