If you love spending time alone, One for Joy is for you. Solitude is more than the absence of other people. It’s an experience just like any other, and it can be as joyful, valuable and inspiring as any other aspect of our lives. It’s time we rediscovered the lost art of being alone. One for Joy is a treasure trove of ideas, stories and reflections that looks at every side of solitude: - Why solitude is so important for introverts, and why our need to be alone is sometimes hard for others to understand - How we experience solitude, and how solitude and company relate to each other - The many ways to be alone, from brief daydreams to solo journeys, everywhere from wide-open spaces to cosy nooks - The benefits of solitude, from resting and recharging to focused work, self-care and deep reflection - Ideas and reflections on solitude from Byron and Charlotte Brontë to Bo Burnham and Kate Bush, and fictional characters from Pippi Longstocking to Darth Vader - How digital technology and social media have changed our experience of solitude. Wide-ranging and insightful, with a light and readable style, One for Joy is a fun and fascinating read for anyone who’s happy on their own.
