As people, and as a culture, Alain de Botton says, we would be much saner and happier if we reexamined our very view of love. His New York Times essay, \u201cWhy You Will Marry the Wrong Person,\u201d is one of their most-read articles in recent years, and this is one of the most popular episodes we\u2019ve ever created. We offer up the anchoring truths he shares amidst a pandemic that has stretched all of our sanity \u2014 and tested the mettle of love in every relationship. Alain de Botton is the founder and chairman of The School of Life. His books include Religion for Atheists and How Proust Can Change Your Life. He\u2019s also published many books as part of The School of Life\u2019s offerings, including a chapbook created from his essay Why You Will Marry the Wrong Person.<\/span><\/p>\n
