The Feelings of Prince Charles - New Edition

Through carefully selected examples, Liv Strömquist methodically demonstrates that in love, the roles and behaviors of each person are far from being facts inherent to an immutable human nature. By placing romantic relationships in their socio-cultural context, she invites us to reconsider romantic relationships in a way other than according to the heterosexual-monogamous norm. By closing The Feelings of Prince Charles, we will certainly know a little more about why Charles left Diana and Whitney fell in love with Bobby Brown, but more importantly, we will no longer look at our life as a couple in the same light. A rigorous and documented comic book essay, The Feelings of Prince Charles is above all a passionate plea for self-determination and the liberation of bodies and consciences. With her biting and salutary humor, Liv Strömquist breathes exceptional vitality into her book, while succeeding – through her seemingly naïve style – in imbuing it with a singular freshness that reinforces her message.
