A dazzling work of memoir, biography and cultural criticism on the subject of loneliness, told through the lives of six iconic artists, by the acclaimed author of "The Trip to Echo Spring." What does it mean to be lonely? How do we live, if we're not intimately engaged with another human being? How do we connect with other people? Does technology draw us closer together or trap us behind screens?
When Olivia Laing moved to New York City in her mid-thirties, she found herself inhabiting loneliness on a daily basis. Increasingly fascinated by this most shameful of experiences, she began to explore the lonely city by way of art. Moving fluidly between works and lives - from Edward Hopper's "Nighthawks" to Andy Warhol's Time Capsules, from Henry Darger's hoarding to David Wojnarowicz's AIDS activism - Laing conducts an electric, dazzling investigation into what it means to be alone.
Humane, provocative and deeply moving, "The Lonely City" is about the spaces between people and the things that draw them together, about sexuality, mortality and the magical possibilities of art. It's a celebration of a strange and lovely state, adrift from the larger continent of human experience, but intrinsic to the very act of being alive.

Описание: Go. One small word. . .so much power. When God says, "Go," faith says yes, but fear says no.
But Lord, I'm too weak. . .too sinful. . .too afraid. . .
But the truth? . . .
When God says, "Go," it's not about you--it's about Him. When God says, "Go," you face a choice: Sit back and stay safe, or swallow hard and step up? When God says, "Go," your time has come.
Maybe it's time to go somewhere new, someplace you've never been. Maybe it's time to go deeper--in Bible study or relationships. Time to go higher--in prayer or dreams. Time to go and give in new ways, to use God-gifted talents and opportunities. Or time to go and grow, right where you are.
Author Elizabeth Laing Thompson invites you to journal your personal thoughts and feelings alongside scriptural truths and encouragement as you respond to God's call. . .equipping you to face your very own doubts, regrets, and worries--with faith, courage, perspective, and a healthy dose of humor.
When God says, "Go," it's time to decide: Will you sit back and stammer, "But Lord. . .," or will you stand tall and say, "Here I am. Send me"? God is calling you--are you ready to go?
