3 quotes from The Lonely City

  • "Loneliness is not a lack of company; loneliness is a state of mind."
  • "Art is a way of encountering other lives, a way of feeling what it is to be human beyond the constraints of our own solitary existence."
  • "In the city, loneliness can be both a burden and a source of inspiration, driving us to seek connection in unexpected places."

Author : Olivia Laing

Olivia Laing is an acclaimed writer and critic known for her insightful explorations of art and culture. Her celebrated works include *To the River*, *The Trip to Echo Spring*, and *The Lonely City*, which has been translated into 17 languages and sold over 100,000 copies globally. Laing's essays are collected in *Funny Weather: Art in an Emergency*, published in 2020, while her debut novel, *Crudo*, offers a real-time narrative of the tumultuous summer of 2017 and received notable accolades, including a Sunday Times top ten ranking and the James Tait Black Memorial Prize. Her writings frequently appear in prominent publications such as the Guardian, Observer, Financial Times, and Frieze. A Fellow of the Royal Society of Literature and a recipient of the Windham-Campbell Prize for non-fiction, Laing's latest work, *Everybody: A Book About Freedom*, is a compelling examination of the body and its complexities, using the life of renegade psychoanalyst Wilhelm Reich as a lens to explore the ongoing quest for bodily autonomy.
