Description
The Lonely City: An Exploration of Loneliness and Human Connection
Olivia Laing's thought-provoking exploration of loneliness delves into the spaces between people and the things that draw us together. Through her own experiences and observations, Laing examines the causes of loneliness and how it might be resisted and redeemed.
This humane and deeply moving book is a celebration of the complexities of human experience, touching on themes of sexuality, mortality, and the power of art to connect us.
