The realm of solitude Khaled Hafdhi

This book seeks to open up new ways of visualizing and exploring loneliness in our age and to offer insights into its different meanings. Loneliness, this body in its modernist and postmodernist sense emerged as both a term and an empirical recognizable experience around the industrial period onward, soon after cultural and institutional ideas about sociability, connectedness, technology, and secularism, became important to the social and political fabric. My purpose in this book is not essentially to chase the truth or the discovery of correct conclusions, but rather to read, question, and attempt to understand and communicate with other texts in order to question everything, guessing appropriate answers, reaching possible conclusions, experimenting what lonely voices were advocating.
