Summary

Brought to you by Penguin.

We are creatures of habit, living most of our lives automatically, in small worlds of more or less comfortable routine. But sometimes outside forces compel us to adjust, and sometimes we must make changes ourselves. What happens when change disrupts our lives? This book is the first in a trilogy which offers an insight unlike any other into the human mind and heart: how we are, how we break, and how we mend. It is about all of us, humbly figuring out how to live.

Critic reviews

Exhilarating, lyrical, consoling... His voice is pleasingly sardonic one of a peer who finds this stuff as difficult and disorientating as the rest of us (Oliver Burkeman)
A book about human nature. It's crammed with ideas. It makes your head spin, in a good way (William Leith)
Fascinating, profound, wonderfully well-observed... [How We Are] could change lives (Bel Mooney)
An honest, self-searching voice, rich in images and characters' stories (Antonia Macaro)

A Book Brimming with ideas

Just a brilliant book, needed to listen to it too as there was so much to take in. Written with clarity, humour and profound wisdom. Now onto How We Break.. and roll on the third instalment
