I Eat the Stars: How to Live Fully and Beautifully in a Collapsing World

About this event

From New York Times bestselling author Sarah Wilson comes a deeply moving, wise guide to finding joy and meaning in a world that seems to be falling apart

It’s hard to escape the feeling that something is deeply wrong . . . that life has become precariously off-balance. We are hit hourly with headlines about collapsing democracies, AI and nuclear threat, rising economic inequality, widespread unrest, climate carnage—catastrophic wildfires, unprecedented flooding, record heat waves—and more. In I Eat the Stars , Sarah Wilson argues we are undergoing what every complex civilization before us has—systemic collapse.

So how do we continue to live as sensitive humans amidst such a tumultuous shift? What does life look like when the systems we rely on deteriorate? Should we be having kids? How do we make financial decisions? Should we be prepping? And, most importantly, how do we avoid succumbing to doom and despair?
