The Art of Loving is a very concise and pithy read‚ it is written in the terse lucid style of gospel‚ each word in each line serving a critical function. This is not a writer’s style nor is a critic’s but that

Passivity Vs. Passion The Perks of Being a Wallflower is by no means a typical narrative. Taking the form of an epistolary novel presented as a series of letters from a boy who calls himself Charlie‚ but notes that he will change names and minor details so for the sake of his anonymity‚ the short novel tackles themes such as pedophilia‚ drug use‚ depression‚ abortion and many more complex issues.
