I’ve always loved talking to people.
Not just my friends or family — but anyone.
The person beside me on the bus, the woman in front of me at the supermarket, the man waiting at the coffee counter.
Over the years, I’ve realised that real conversation — the kind that makes two strangers smile — doesn’t come from rehearsed lines or forced charm.
It comes from noticing.
Noticing someone’s shoes and imagining where they’ve been.
Noticing the sound of their accent or the colour of their bag.
Noticing what’s in their basket, the book they’re reading, the weather outside.
Those small observations become bridges.
And when you take a step across — with kindness and curiosity — people open up.
But lately, I’ve noticed something else:
People have forgotten how to chat.
We’re so busy, so cautious, so distracted, that we’ve lost the simple art of talking to each other.
We walk through cities full of people and feel lonely.
We stand in queues surrounded by stories and stay silent.
We’ve built a world where connection is possible everywhere — except, somehow, in real life.
I wrote this book as a reminder — to myself and to anyone who’s felt that quiet distance — that conversation is still one of the most beautiful things we can share.
It’s not about being clever or confident.
It’s about being curious.
It’s about saying, “I see you.”
Because when we truly see people, something shifts.
The world softens.
We remember we belong to each other.
And that’s worth protecting.
So wherever you’re reading this — on a train, in a café, or at home — I hope these pages encourage you to look up a little more, notice people again, and maybe even start a few conversations of your own.
Because it’s still possible to bring warmth back into the world —
one small chat at a time.

Information regarding the right of withdrawal
Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.
To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back, or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.
You shall send back the goods or hand them over to California Books, Fort Wayne, Indiana, U.S.A., without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.
Exceptions to the right of withdrawal
The right of withdrawal does not apply to:
- The delivery of newspapers, journals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts; and
- The supply of digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium (e.g. on a CD or DVD) if you accepted when you placed your order that we could start to deliver it, and that you could not withdraw once delivery had started.
