Title: Humanity Is Trying: Experiments in Living with Grief, Finding Connection, and Resisting Easy Answers Author: Jason Gots Narrator: Jason Gots Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 8 hours 53 minutes Release date: March 1, 2022 Genres: Memoirs Publisher's Summary: “A truly beautiful, wise, raw, subtle book." —Robert MacFarlane, author of Underland My sister and I are driving south toward Graceland in her beat-up red Saturn, both in need of refuge, both running from different things. Her bumper sticker reads “Humanity Is Trying.” It’s a triple entendre, she explains: Humanity is exhausting. Humanity is struggle. Humanity is doing the best it knows how. Humanity Is Trying is several books in one. It’s a memoir about the love and the loss of a sister and a best friend. It’s the story of a series of escape attempts—cowardly, courageous, harmful, and hopeful—experiments in freedom from the stories that limit us. And it’s a record of spiritual, intellectual, and emotional growth with the help of friends, psychedelics, art, and spiritual practice. From Jason Gots, creator of the podcasts Think Again and Clever Creature, comes a philosophical love letter to the slow, messy work of building a life and living with your dreams in the face of reality.
