Everything is Extraordinary: True stories about how we live, love and pay attention by Cole Moreton is now out (on May 7) by Hodder Faith.
Here’s some more information about the book:
What if we could learn to live with such awareness long before the end? To appreciate every moment, and every encounter with another human or with the natural world around us? Might we, too, learn that everything is extraordinary? That we are interconnected and interdependent?
Each encounter we have with another person is potentially meaningful because our very humanity depends on being connected with others. As Desmond Tutu says: “I couldn’t be a human being on my lonesome, I wouldn’t know what to do.”
In a set of lyrical meditations, award-winning writer and interviewer Cole Moreton takes us face-to-face with the famous, the infamous — and others with insights to share — from Scarlett Johansson, Tiger Woods and Queen Elizabeth II to Zahra, a refugee who crossed the Channel on a tiny, overladen rubber boat. We meet all of them as equals and each fascinating story tells us something about the way we live, love and reach out to find each other, whoever we are.
Everything Is Extraordinary builds into a mesmerising and lyrical meditation on the joy of being alive and open to the world. All we need to do is pay attention.
The book is available to buy wherever books are sold.
