'I loved every page of Emily's punchy, provocative, energised, joyful musings.' - MATT HAIG'Emily's words are why we all need to get off the internet.' - AJA BARBER, in her Patreon newsletter'What follows is not a tidy narrative. I am not a tidy person. These pages are made of fragments, contradictions, jokes, confessions and philosophical detours, because, well, that is how life happens . . .'In this book, Emily Crane invites us to share her observations on the extraordinary and the everyday: stacks of washing up sit alongside musings on God; hot coffee accompanies thoughts about creativity; and memories of snails in her childhood garden slip in beside notes on writing, and books. We find Nietzsche living in a house-share with Keats, and a grieving Demeter keeps us company on wintry Sunday morning walks. Drawing upon philosophy, literature, mythology and memoir, In Search of Lost Thoughts is an antidote to the stresses and distractions of the world we live in. Above all, it is a vivid and striking insight into what it means to be a young woman today.
