The Ends of Aloneness explores the role of solitude in nineteenth-century realist novels, arguing for the import of its radically partial nature. In doing so, it seeks to split a gap between Foucault's ideas about nineteenth-century life and Ian Watt's account of the novel genre's rise. It claims that in the first instance, it is easy to feel that distance is compromised, through social surveillance, only disempoweringly; while in the second, it is easy to read aloneness as public triumph as the basis of an ethos of economic independence. It therefore studies texts from the era that admit that being alone cannot be ''pure'' in modern times, yet which show that partialness in solitude can be a boon, helping subjects mediate the plural demands of modernity. Building on the scholarship of Jeff Nunokawa, Christopher Lane, and Amanda Anderson, the current study departs from it by not privileging solitude that implies a rare event, but rather, attends to the mundane. Focusing respectively on women's time, women's space, and economic organization of women's time and space, the first three chapters make a case for reading a trio of prominent texts--Persuasion, Villette, and The Odd Women--through an undernoted support for women's right to withdrawal. As for Dickens's Our Mutual Friend, it shows women gaining ground through co-opting alienation, yet cannot keep from wanting to contain female cleverness as a rule, making it resist and bolster strains of social hypocrisy. Notably, each novel here crafts an ending that rewards strong solitaries with affection. Without erasing solo resilience, they imagine solitaries ''alone together'' in relations that take cues from canny ways of navigating self and world--in other words, that take cues from proactive distance itself. Thus, while the phrase ''the ends of aloneness'' speaks to aims and goals for conduct, another aspect has to do with the forms of closing scenes. Refashioning the marriage plot to acknowledge solo strength, the novels here make social distance anchor new relational forms that combine eccentric views, yet further blend oddities with careful social concessions into patterns of compromise.

“If you’ve been looking for something different to level up your health, fitness, and personal growth, this is it.”—Melissa Urban, Whole30 CEO and New York Times bestselling author of The Book of Boundaries “Michael Easter’s genius is that he puts data around the edges of what we intuitively believe. His work has inspired many to change their lives for the better.”—Dr. Peter Attia, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Outlive Discover the evolutionary mind and body benefits of living at the edges of your comfort zone and reconnecting with the wild—from the author of Scarcity Brain, coming in September! In many ways, we’re more comfortable than ever before. But could our sheltered, temperature-controlled, overfed, underchallenged lives actually be the leading cause of many our most urgent physical and mental health issues? In this gripping investigation, award-winning journalist Michael Easter seeks out off-the-grid visionaries, disruptive genius researchers, and mind-body conditioning trailblazers who are unlocking the life-enhancing secrets of a counterintuitive solution: discomfort. Easter’s journey to understand our evolutionary need to be challenged takes him to meet the NBA’s top exercise scientist, who uses an ancient Japanese practice to build championship athletes; to the mystical country of Bhutan, where an Oxford economist and Buddhist leader are showing the world what death can teach us about happiness; to the outdoor lab of a young neuroscientist who’s found that nature tests our physical and mental endurance in ways that expand creativity while taming burnout and anxiety; to the remote Alaskan backcountry on a demanding thirty-three-day hunting expedition to experience the rewilding secrets of one of the last rugged places on Earth; and more. Along the way, Easter uncovers a blueprint for leveraging the power of discomfort that will dramatically improve our health and happiness, and perhaps even help us understand what it means to be human. The Comfort Crisis is a bold call to break out of your comfort zone and explore the wild within yourself.

Increasingly fascinated by this most shameful of experiences, she began to explore the lonely city by way of art. Moving fluidly between the works and lives of some of the city's most compelling artists, Laing conducts an electric, dazzling investigation into what it means to be alone, illuminating not only the causes of loneliness but also how it might be resisted and redeemed.
