A recent survey reveals that the number of people living alone continues to increase, whether they are single, divorced, widowed or separated, with or without children. With the increase in life expectancy, each of us has been, is or will be “solo-bater”. Even those who live as a couple sometimes experience loneliness. This is a fairly recent and widespread phenomenon! The author explains the historical origins of this sociological phenomenon and explores the various aspects of loneliness, the frustrations and pitfalls that lonely people face on a daily basis. It also offers original avenues for reflection and concrete and effective tools to better experience solitude and progress on the path to fulfillment and autonomy.
