Description
A moving exploration of loneliness and freedom, individualism and love. In a society that values independence, living alone is often seen as a failure. But can we ever be truly happy on our own? Daniel Schreiber reflects on the tension between solitude and companionship, drawing on personal experience and philosophical insights to illuminate the role of friendships in our lives. As he explores this complex issue, Schreiber sheds light on how our desire for meaning and connection is shaped by the world around us. This thought-provoking book offers a profound meditation on how we want to live, and its themes are more relevant now than ever. Hardcover, 152 pages.
