I just finished Tolestoy's "Family Happiness." I won't spoil the plot, but it is amazing how much it relates to the red-pill cultural conversation. Very prescient. There really isn't anything new under the sun.
When romantic intensity recedes, what does it mean to love? Our culture often views this shift as a tragedy but it's a question better left open ended. Highly recommended. Favorite quote from the book:
"A quiet secluded life in the country, with the possibility of being useful to people to whom it is easy to do good, and who are not accustomed to have it done to them; then work which one hopes may be of some use; then rest, nature, books, music, love for one's neighbor — such is my idea of happiness."
