INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER "The Best Strangers in the World
is a witty, poignant book that captures Ari Shapiro's love for the
unusual, his pursuit of the unexpected, and his delight at
connection against the odds."--Ronan Farrow, Pulitzer Prize-winning
investigative journalist and New York Times-bestselling author of
Catch and Kill and War on Peace From the beloved host of NPR's All
Things Considered, a stirring memoir-in-essays that is also a lover
letter to journalism. In his first book, broadcaster Ari Shapiro
takes us around the globe to reveal the stories behind narratives
that are sometimes heartwarming, sometimes heartbreaking, but
always poignant. He details his time traveling on Air Force One
with President Obama, or following the path of Syrian refugees
fleeing war, or learning from those fighting for social justice
both at home and abroad. As the self-reinforcing bubbles we live in
become more impenetrable, Ari Shapiro keeps seeking ways to help
people listen to one another; to find connection and commonality
with those who may seem different; to remind us that, before
religion, or nationality, or politics, we are all human. The Best
Strangers in the World is a testament to one journalist's passion
for Considering All Things--and sharing what he finds with the rest
of us.
