Overview

This is a book about how it feels to exist. About the moments we come off autopilot and engage fully with the world around us. The fleeting moments in which our minds and bodies connect totally to one another and to our environment. Intimate, impassioned and full of humour, PINCH ME follows art historian Francesca Ramsay's far-reaching journey in search of answers to one of life's most complex and essential questions: What does it mean to feel real? Tackling this ancient subject through a contemporary lens, PINCH ME is a raw, lyrical reflection on finding connection with oneself, one another and the modern world. Ramsay investigates what it is to experience reality, the reasons so many of us are feeling the lack of it today, and crucially, how we might be able to get it back.

I loved following Francesca's attempts to feel real in the twenty-first century. Enlightening, insightful, thought-provoking, and still often laugh-out-loud funny. CLAIRE FULLER

I loved following Francesca's attempts to feel real in the twenty-first century. Enlightening, insightful, thought-provoking, and still often laugh-out-loud funny. CLAIRE FULLER; A compelling and timely exploration of contemporary reality ... I found myself completely captivated by her voice and view of the world. NATHAN DUNNE, AUTHOR OF LICHTENSTEIN; Truly such a wonderful read. There were numerous drifts of sentence and sentiment that I was unable to pass by without noting down - certain things stuck, resonated, rang so piercingly true. ELLA FRANCES SANDERS, AUTHOR OF EVERYTHING, BEAUTIFUL
