Nothing is stronger than a small hope that doesn't give up. The Comfort Book is a collection of little islands of hope. It gathers consolations and stories that give new ways of seeing ourselves and the world. Matt Haig's mix of philosophy, memoir and self-reflection builds on the wisdom of philosophers and survivors through the ages, from Marcus Aurelius to Nellie Bly, Emily Dickinson to James Baldwin. This is the book to pick up when you need the wisdom of a friend, the comfort of a hug or just to celebrate the messy miracle of being alive.

What makes us most human, I think, is our power of choice, even in dark, terribly painful moments. In The Comfort Book, Matt Haigh helps us to consciously navigate the choices that surround us at every moment, and thereby veer away from negative or self deprecating thoughts, moving towards self love, hope and self acceptance. Matt communicates this with immense sincerity.
This book teaches me that, even when I feel crushed by the weight of fear and circumstance "I am enough" - enough to push open the doors to possibility and enter the transformation of my life. And I believe him!

Narration wonderfully warm and uplifting!

Listen to this on your headphones and there is an intimacy to it. I sat outside surrounded by nature and was totally absorbed. Thank you Matt Haig

I loved this book. Matt describes his own struggles so well and gave me so many lightbulb moments of where I could think differently about myself. I am enough. Thanks Matt x
