Krátky popis
`An elegant, thoughtful book . . . beautifully expresses the
importance and experience of liberation from the battery-hen life
of constant connection and crowds.' Daily Mail`A compelling study
of the subtle ways in which modern life and technologies have
transformed our behaviour and sense of self.' Times Literary
SupplementIn a world of social media and smartphones, true solitude
has become increasingly hard to find. In this timely and important
book, award-winning writer Michael Harris reveals why our
hyper-connected society makes time alone more crucial than ever. He
delves into the latest neuroscience to examine the way innovations
like Google Maps and Facebook are eroding our ability to be by
ourselves. He tells the stories of the remarkable people - from
pioneering computer scientists to great nineteenth-century
novelists - who managed to find solitude in the most unexpected of
places. And he explores how solitude can bring clarity and
creativity to each of our inner lives. Urgent, eloquent and
beautifully argued, Solitude might just change the way you think
about being alone. `Speaks to a long-overdue conversation we still
haven't properly had in our society.' Vice`A timely, elegant
provocation to daydream and wander.' Nathan Filer, author of The
Shock of the Fall`A poetic, contemplative journey into the benefits
of solo sojourning.' Elle
