And that’s what Franz Wisner sets out to do—traveling the globe with a mission: to discover the planet’s most important love lessons and see if they can rescue him from the ruins of his own love life. Even after months on the road, he’s still not sure he’s found the secret. But a disastrous date with a Los Angeles actress and single mom keeps popping into Franz’s head. While researching ideal love, could he have missed a bigger truth: that something unplanned and implausible could actually make him happy? <p></p>Uproarious, tender, and studded with eye-opening insights on love, <em>How the World Makes Love</em> is the story of one average man’s search for happiness—a search that turns into an improbable love story in the author’s own backyard.]]></description>

Kita tidak melihatnya, tapi selalu bisa merasakannya.<br/><br/>Penulis buku laris Honeymoon with My Brother kembali bertualang keliling dunia untuk belajar tentang cinta dan mencari cinta sejati ...<br/><br/>Jika Anda dicampakkan di altar oleh calon istri Anda yang telah dipacari selama 10 tahun dan terpaksa “berbulan madu” dengan adik lelaki Anda, apa yang akan Anda lakukan agar bisa kembali percaya pada cinta?<br/><br/>Dalam buku keduanya ini, Franz Wisner—sang pecundang cinta yang berhasil menemukan hikmah tersembunyi dari kisah putus cintanya—kembali menuliskan pengalamannya berkeliling dunia. Kali ini dia bertualang dengan satu misi: mencari pelajaran cinta paling penting dari berbagi penjuru dunia demi menyelamatkan hidupnya dari reruntuhan kehidupan asmaranya.<br/><br/>Dari karnaval penuh gairah di Brasil dan keunikan India hingga eksotisme Mesir dan Eropa Timur, setiap petualangan Wizner bersaudara membuka mata kita akan keajaiban cinta dan kekhasan gaya menjalin asmara di berbagai negeri, diwarnai dengan aneka kisah seru yang mereka alami.<br/><br/>Bagaimanakah akhir petualangan sang pecundang cinta? Pelajaran cinta apakah yang didapatnya dari berbagai penjuru dunia? Berhasilkah dia menemukan cinta sejatinya?<br/><br/>How the World Makes Love adalah kisah luar biasa tentang pencarian manusia akan kebahagiaan dan cinta sejati yang berakhir mengejutkan. Lucu, menyentuh hati, dan sekaligus sangat menghibur, buku ini tidak hanya bakal memancing hasrat bepergian Anda, tapi juga akan membuka mata hati Anda tentang hakikat cinta.]]>

And that’s what Franz Wisner sets out to do—traveling the globe with a mission: to discover the planet’s most important love lessons and see if they can rescue him from the ruins of his own love life. Even after months on the road, he’s still not sure he’s found the secret. But a disastrous date with a Los Angeles actress and single mom keeps popping into Franz’s head. While researching ideal love, could he have missed a bigger truth: that something unplanned and implausible could actually make him happy? <p></p>Uproarious, tender, and studded with eye-opening insights on love, <em>How the World Makes Love</em> is the story of one average man’s search for happiness—a search that turns into an improbable love story in the author’s own backyard.]]>

    <![CDATA[<strong><em>The bestselling author of </em>Honeymoon with My Brother <em>hits the road again to learn about love and finally finds it closer to home </em></strong><br/><br/>When you’ve been jilted at the altar and forced to take your pre-paid honeymoon with your brother, it’s fair to say you could learn a thing or two about love. And that’s what Franz Wisner sets out to do—traveling the globe with a mission: to discover the planet’s most important love lessons and see if they can rescue him from the ruins of his own love life. Even after months on the road, he’s still not sure he’s found the secret. But a disastrous date with a Los Angeles actress and single mom keeps popping into Franz’s head. While researching ideal love, could he have missed a bigger truth: that something unplanned and implausible could actually make him happy? <p></p>Uproarious, tender, and studded with eye-opening insights on love, <em>How the World Makes Love</em> is the story of one average man’s search for happiness—a search that turns into an improbable love story in the author’s own backyard.]]>

    <![CDATA[<strong><em>The bestselling author of </em>Honeymoon with My Brother <em>hits the road again to learn about love and finally finds it closer to home </em></strong><br/><br/>When you’ve been jilted at the altar and forced to take your pre-paid honeymoon with your brother, it’s fair to say you could learn a thing or two about love. And that’s what Franz Wisner sets out to do—traveling the globe with a mission: to discover the planet’s most important love lessons and see if they can rescue him from the ruins of his own love life. Even after months on the road, he’s still not sure he’s found the secret. But a disastrous date with a Los Angeles actress and single mom keeps popping into Franz’s head. While researching ideal love, could he have missed a bigger truth: that something unplanned and implausible could actually make him happy? <p></p>Uproarious, tender, and studded with eye-opening insights on love, <em>How the World Makes Love</em> is the story of one average man’s search for happiness—a search that turns into an improbable love story in the author’s own backyard.]]>
