Speaking to the Hookup Culture

by Jim Manney

dotMagis blogger Tim Muldoon has just published a new book, a memoir titled Longing to Love: A Memoir of Desire, Relationships, and Spiritual Transformation.  Here’s what Tim himself says about why he wrote it:

It has arisen in large part from my work trying to understand and speak to students about the prevailing hookup culture, inviting them to listen to their deeper desires for friendship, for relationship, for intimacy.  It invites people to a way of imagining the possibility of love, an way of imagining that is different from many cultural messages that in the end do not satisfy our desires.

The book is terrific.  Read a sample chapter here.
