Hvor kommer drømmen om den eneste ene fra, og hvordan har den forandret sig med tiden? Og hvordan har drømmen det i dag, side om side med eksistentiel ensomhed og høje skilsmisserater?

Det er de spørgsmål, Katrine Frøkjær Baunvig, ph.d., fjerdegenerationsfraskilt og selverklæret håbefuld romantiker sætter sig for at finde svar på i denne bog. Fra begyndelsen af vores tidsregning og frem til nu sporer hun drømmen om den store kærlighed i dens mange forskellige udtryk. Gennem sin egen familiehistorie, religion, litteratur, film, reklamer og genstande finder hun tegn på menneskets evige ønske om at føle noget stærkt. Og på håbet om at finde en højere mening med livet, som nogle gange - men ikke altid - kan fremkaldes i samværet med ét bestemt andet menneske.

Bogen er en kærlighedserklæring til håbet, til romantiske følelser, til fællesskabet og til drømmen om at være noget for nogen.
