Summary/Abstract: The Foreword from the book Ljubav za početnike (Love for Beginners), Zagreb: Ljevak, 2009. Commenting on the book, Slavoj Žižek wrote: “This is the proof that, while having sex, the partners are never alone, even if they lock themselves up in some tiny room, for there is no sex without talking about sex! Horvat is doing for psychoanalysis what the old introductions to Marxism did for dialectical and historical materialism: he brings Lacan to the wide masses of workers, peasants and honest intelligentsia. This book is needed as much as fresh bread!”
