    I've just read Olivia Laing's 'The Lonely City' and thoroughly enjoyed her deep insights into loneliness and how artists have used art to deal with their loneliness. I look forward to reading more books by her.

    Olivia is a wonderful writer.
    I have read slmost everything she has written. "The lonely City" certainly touched me. I have always felt like an outsider. My views are unconventional and I do not conform to society's view of beauty. In fact, i am strange looking and people can be cruel. I do so wish people would be less unthinking and aware of there behaviour towards those that are "different."
    I think loneliness is going to get worse. People are becoming more isolated esp with social media and the neo liberalism ideal since the late 70s.

      Death in her hands is absolutely amazing but I made the mistake of reading it after the loss of my 17 year old dog who was my whole world. That book made me sob uncontrollably. Beautiful book but my god
