如何克服孤立並享受獨處
我們很容易覺得自己是唯一感到孤獨的人。我們不僅受苦，還因反覆確信自己是唯一如此困惑和迷失的人；唯一沒有伴侶、週六晚上又將獨自一人的人，而摧毀了自信。
這本具有轉變力量的書，透過才華洋溢的攝影師茱莉亞·霍金斯真摯的訪談和迷人的肖像，探討了孤獨。我們聽取了來自不同背景的人們的故事，他們的生活因孤立而塑造——那些感到被忽視、被誤解和被疏遠的人，以及那些找到通往理解和連結意外途徑的人。
我們感到被啟發和安慰，因為我們的孤獨並非獨一無二；事實上，它是最普遍的情感。因此，我們完全有理由向我們同樣複雜、善良和孤獨的鄰居伸出援手。
這本書獻給所有曾經感到孤獨的人——也就是說，獻給所有曾經身為人類的人。

I picked this up during a stretch of weeks where I barely talked to anyone, and the chapter on why we're so convinced we're uniquely alone actually made me put it down and just sit for a minute. It's more comfort than advice, which is what I needed.
I read it on a quiet Sunday afternoon and by evening I'd already started a few of the exercises. The chapter on distinguishing isolation from chosen solitude really shifted how I view my own alone time, and the tone stays gentle without ever getting preachy.
The chapter on reframing solitude as a choice rather than a sentence hit me hardest—I've reread it three times now. It’s rare for a book to make me feel understood and then actually hand me a way forward, but this one does both without being preachy.
