"The lonely city" by Olivia Laing

In this non-fiction book Laing conducts an investigation into what it means to be alone, how loneliness might be redeem and embraced. The lonely city is New York which Laing explores by way of art.

Referring to Edward Hoppers urban scenes: "[...] it also replicates one of the central experiences of being alone: the way a feeling of separation, of being walled off or penned in, combines with a sense of near-unbearable exposure"
