Enchantment

The New York Times and Sunday Times bestseller

Our sense of enchantment is not only sparked by grand things. The awe-inspiring, the numinous, is all around us, all the time. It is transformed by our deliberate attention. The magic is of our own conjuring.

After years of pandemic life – parenting while working, battling anxiety about things beyond her control, feeling overwhelmed by the news-cycle and increasingly isolated – Katherine May feels bone-tired, on edge and depleted. Could there be another way to live? One that would allow her to feel less fraught and more connected, more rested and at ease, even as seismic changes unfold on the planet?
