Following his bestseller “Allein”, Daniel Schreiber now explores the question: How can one live in times of widespread loss?

There is nothing we would rather ignore than the impermanence of the world. Yet we are confronted with it time and again. How do we deal with the awareness that something is irretrievably lost?
Based on his personal experience of his father's death, Daniel Schreiber recounts a day in fog-shrouded Venice, analyzing our private and social capacity for mourning—and searching for ways to deal with a feeling that often overwhelms us.
