Every Brilliant Thing

by Duncan Macmillan
Every Brilliant Thing
Every Brilliant Thing

Childhood innocence confronts depression with hope.

If the tug of everyday joy appeals to you, "Every Brilliant Thing" might just clutch your heart. It tenderly navigates the complexities of love, mental health, and the sweet simplicities that make life worth living. Despite its heavy themes, the book wraps you in warmth, illustrated by the earnest effort of a child's perspective to counterbalance the gravity of depression.

Note: While we do our best to ensure the accuracy of cover images, ISBNs may at times be reused for different editions of the same title which may hence appear as a different cover.
