On Consolation: Finding Solace in Dark Times
A moving and profound exploration of how writers, composers, and artists have searched for solace while facing loss, tragedy, and crisis. Michael Ignatieff examines the need for consolation in times of hardship and how it has been expressed throughout history.
This book contemplates how we can revive the traditions of consolation to meet the anguish and uncertainties of the twenty-first century, drawing on the stories of great figures who have looked to each other for hope and resilience in extremity.
