Beschreibung

The must-read, pocket-sized Big Think book of 2020

Ours is the age of contagious anxiety. We feel overwhelmed by the events around us, by injustice, by suffering, by an endless feeling of crisis. So, how can we nurture the parts of ourselves that hope, trust and believe in something better? And how can we stay sane in this age of division?

In this powerful, uplifting plea for conscious optimism, Booker Prize-nominated novelist and activist Elif Shafak draws on her own memories and delves into the power of stories to bring us together. In the process, she reveals how listening to each other can nurture democracy, empathy and our faith in a kinder and wiser future.

Do not be afraid of complexity. Be afraid of people who promise an easy shortcut to simplicity.

A hopeful read in unstable times. Makes me want to finally read a novel of hers.

2.5 - this would have been so much better if I hadn't already listened to the interviews with Elif Shafak available for free on Spotify. The content is pretty much exactly the same, often even verbatim. The thoughts are worth listening to (or reading about), but I could have just saved the money I spent on the hard copy.

I can see how one would like this book. It is short and up to time written during that pandemic. I personally just feel like it is facts chained together that sometimes don’t even make sense to the title.
