Synopsis
editIn the book the author splits loneliness into six parts, the flesh, language, revolution, thinking, ethics, and violence. Hsun believes that loneliness is necessary, but that the fear of it could make things worse. The author also challenges the concept of language meanings, saying that words can be ignored or misinterpreted by others, contributing to the feeling of loneliness.[5]
