Rating: 4 out of 5

I didn’t love this as much as The Atlas of Beauty but there were still some inspiring stories and beautiful photographs to look at. Another great book to have on the shelf to look at when you need to remind yourself of how diverse a city can be.

Highlighted passages:

Everyone has problems, everyone’s a minority in some way

“I’ve always been very good at loving myself, and that’s made me very good at loving other people. I helped my patients feel safe and taught them strategies to deal with stressful situations, and they in turn taught me how to really be myself and that there is always hope. I think people are wonderful; its so good to feel their warmth and that’s given me a very happy life” - Sonia
