At no time before have so many people lived alone, and never has
loneliness been so widely or keenly felt. Why, in a society of
individualists, is living alone perceived as a shameful failure?
And can we ever be happy on our own? Drawing on personal
experience, as well as philosophy and sociology, Daniel Schreiber
explores the tension between the desire for solitude and freedom,
and for companionship, intimacy and love. Along the way he
illuminates the role that friendships play in our lives - can they
be a response to the loss of meaning in a world in crisis? A
profoundly enlightening book on how we want to live, Alone spent
almost a year on Germany's bestseller list.
