Somehow: Thoughts on Love

This is Lamott's twentieth book, published in February 2024 on the day before her 70th birthday. If you're new to her nonfiction, this is a hospitable place to hop in; if you're familiar with her work you'll recognize repeating themes: the mixed bag of joy and pain that life contains, the myriad lessons she's learned in recovery, the impossibility of the circumstances we sometimes face, and the persistent drumbeat of hope in the face of it all.
