The Coronation: Essays from the Covid Moment

Controversy and despair, hope and isolation, courage and division, withdrawal and reunion: How can we find meaning within this complex ‘Covid’ moment - and emerge renewed?

Renowned public speaker, bestselling author, social critic and activist Charles Eisenstein offers a way forward through a series of unforgettable essays that give us a new model of sense-making in a post-Covid world. The Coronation places each essay in the context of the author’s social, political and spiritual journey through the past two years.

Eisenstein shows how an old reality has disintegrated - and just how deep that breakdown is. He asserts that by acknowledging it, we might build something more sound, more whole, and more sane. Underneath the shifting sands of the global arguments and media narratives, something else calls to us: the possibility of renewal, a revolution in the agreements and myths that organise society.
