Reading Love in the 21st Century: Lessons from Erich Fromm’s The Art of Loving
In this week’s episode of Bibliotherapy with Bijal Shah, I explore Erich Fromm’s timeless classic The Art of Loving and reflect on what it can teach us about love in our modern world. I look at how Fromm’s vision of love — as a discipline, a practice, and a moral art — can help us navigate the challenges of connection in 2025, from digital intimacy to generational shifts in how we give and receive love.
At its heart, this episode is an invitation to slow down, pay attention, and rediscover love as the deepest expression of what it means to be human.
I hope you enjoy it! x
