A review by emilio_books
Everybody by Olivia Laing

challenging emotional hopeful informative inspiring reflective medium-paced

4.5

I genuinely love this book; in the beginning I was sceptical as someone who's never really read non-fiction privately, but the message this book has and what it means in today's times does become very visible the more one reads on. 

I consider myself an activist and someone who will wholeheartedly stand behind the fight for people's wellbeing and their lives (and their freedom), and I think that if you do too, but are losing hope; read this. 
This book might give you strength to continue protests, boycotts, donations, etc., even if things aren't looking up these days in many countries.

A quote from the book I find meaning in:
"Imagine for a minute, what it would be like to inhabit a body without fear, without the need for fear. Just imagine what we could do. Just imagine the world that we could build."
