Description

The Instant by Amy Liptrot is a deeply personal and unflinching exploration of love, lust, and identity. In this memoir, Amy recounts her journey as she leaves behind the isolation of her Orkney island life to explore Berlin's vibrant streets, nightclubs, and parks in search of new experiences and connection. As she navigates the city's wildlife, from goshawks to hooded crows, Amy also searches for love through the screen of her laptop. Her year-long experiment in making space for the unexpected leads to an all-consuming affair that obsesses her. With unapologetic candour, Amy examines the addictive power of love and lust, as well as the mesmerising world of Neolithic stonework and the trails followed by those who exist online. Through her story, Amy Liptrot offers a profound look at the cycles of life, the beauty of nature, and the complexities of human connection.
