ALL THE LONELY PEOPLE by Dr. Sam Carr

by: Dr. Sam Carr

Only £16.99

Loneliness isn’t a subject you’d think could be inspiring and uplifting, but this book is. Dr. Carr is a psychologist and was the director of The Loneliness Project which gave him the opportunity to meet and interview people from all walks of life about the loneliness they were experiencing. His book tells these stories, stories of love and loss, of trauma and hope, told from care homes, living rooms, classrooms and kitchens and reveals what they tell us. He discovered that while each of their stories is utterly unique, they are all born out of the same desire for human connection. He interweaves these touching and powerful tales with his own personal narrative, and opens a window onto the inner lives of regular people – the forgotten, misplaced or misjudged – who all feel isolated in some way.
