Six Lectures about Loneliness is a 2009 non-fiction book by Chian Hsun, a professor at the Chinese Culture University. The book discusses the concept of loneliness and how it affects different aspects of humanity.
Synopsis
In the book the author splits loneliness into six parts, the flesh, language, revolution, thinking, ethics, and violence.
