Lonesome class

Lonesome class, or a class of its own: the future belongs to us singles. Edition A (Vienna), 2.12.2017

My book talks the new norm of being “single.” The setting is Japan, where official statistics show that most singles are not looking for a partner, yet it draws various parallels with Western countries. You can purchase it at your local bookshop or online. See the blurb here:

To be happy we need to find our other half. Is this true or just another belief that needs questioning? When internationally successful journalist Felix Lill was left by his partner shortly after having moved to Tokyo, he was confronted by an unfamiliar reality. There, life as single can be just as satisfying as life with a partner. In his book, Lill tells how he gave up on the notion of a romantic relationship being the only path to satisfaction and what came after that. Based on well-researched facts, he finds that our era is one where singles stand poised to inherit the future.
