Loneliness in the Age of Emotional Capitalism explores how our deepest longings have been commodified—and what it means to reclaim them. Drawing from philosophy, cultural critique, and lived experience, this book traces the quiet unraveling of belonging in a world shaped by speed, spectacle, and self-optimization. From the architecture of estrangement to the ache beneath the ache, from marketed vulnerability to gestures of repair, this is not a manual for fixing loneliness—it is a cartography of it. With moral clarity and poetic resonance, the chapters invite readers to slow down, to listen, and to remember: disconnection is not just a symptom, but a summons. This is a book for those who feel the fracture and still believe in the possibility of return.
