Book excerpt: Unlike its eponymous, ironic, title, the characteristic 20th century preoccupation with discovering meaning seems to be at the thematic heart of this book. The possibility of love as a candidate returns again and again. The work is often cerebral seeming to exist in a world of thought only, which makes incursions into the sensual the more striking.
