Summary

Despair and uncertainty surround us - in the news, in our families and in ourselves. But even when life is at its bleakest, Anne Lamott shows how we can rediscover the hope and wisdom that are buried within us, and that can make life sweeter than we ever imagined. Divided into short chapters that explore life's essential truths, Almost Everything pinpoints these moments of insight and, with warmth and humour, offers a path forward.

Critic reviews

"Anne Lamott has a rare talent for making writing look easy.... Given the warmth, liveliness and intimacy of her prose, time with one of her books can feel like a visit with a friend." (Wall Street Journal)

"Part memoir, part manual and part sermon from the church of Lamott, this satisfying escape points to notes of beauty in our uncertain world." (People)

"[Lamott] talks about God, politics and other unmentionables, and gently exhorts her readers, as she does herself, to find joy in a bleak and chaotic world: a leftie guru of optimism." (New York Times)

Comforting, inspiring, I return to her words often. Heartwarming

I enjoyed all of it and listened several times,
wise words with humour and honesty.
