As with all his books, Holloway peppers his lively prose with an eclectic selection of pithy writings from poets, philosophers and novelists from around the world and across the centuries. The resulting book presents a brilliantly argued thesis that is both challenging and empowering. In the manner of the best work by Alain de Botton, Looking in the Distance is accessible, funny, serious, hopeful and heartfelt - a book that will change your life.
