The Essence of Love

When I was a young boy, this book was my most favorite. I read it again and again with a touching feeling. This main theme is a characteristic love of little Fadette. The story turns over at certain pivotal plot, which is composed of the conversation between her and her boyfriend at the quiet riverside in the woods. Her speaking is excellent despite of her surface. Her kind conclusion causes the deep sympathy resembling the love. Rather, the theme of her speaking might be the love itself. Later, I have begun to think of this motif as the essence of the Christianity. A lady in the Old Testament tells that she cannot estimate the figure of her lover as other girls do, because she doesn't love him for its sake, but love his invisible things like his heart.I have learned the spiritual love from this novel. I'd advise the young people to read it.
