        How to describe and understand modern relationships? Belinda Cannone tracks the metamorphoses of love. From unions “for life” to love matches that emerged at the end of the eighteenth century, and to the twentieth-century revolutions that established desire as a requisite ingredient for a successful relationship. These revolutions have their downsides: love, if it evolves, can last a lifetime whereas desire is more fleeting. So why stay in a relationship when the fire has gone out of it? Renouncing “for life” is only possible if we acknowledge the nobility of desire. Viewed for too long as a sin, it is now valued, but not always for what it is.
