Love and Longing: Education and Eros

By Marla Morris

Love, longing, despair, and anguish. Falling in love. An abundance. Falling in love with a city. Is this even possible? If so, what would that look like? This book is about falling in love with New Orleans. Socrates says if you want to be educated go to the city. Morris suggests if you want to be educated, go to New Orleans. The Vieux Carr is seductive. She is as if a woman. She will seduce you. You will not want to leave. If you leave, you will return. Can education bear the language of seduction?
