The Story
THE INSTANT NUMBER ONEĀ SUNDAY TIMESĀ BESTSELLER
Reflections on hope, survival and the messy miracle of being alive
It is a strange paradox, that many of the clearest, most comforting life
lessons are learned while we are at our lowest. But then we never think about
food more than when we are hungry and we never think about life rafts more than
when we are thrown overboard.
The Comfort BookĀ is a collection of consolations learned in hard
times and suggestions for making the bad days better. Drawing on maxims, memoir
and the inspirational lives of others, these meditations celebrate the
ever-changing wonder of living. This is for when we need the wisdom of a friend
or a reminder we can always nurture inner strength and hope, even in our busy
world.
A book of timeless comfort for modern minds.
