The Instant By Amy Liptrotepub Here

Following her recovery from alcoholism, Liptrot books a one-way flight to Berlin, seeking "new experiences, inspiration, and love". She settles into a shared flat in the Kreuzberg district, taking on low-wage jobs and immersing herself in the city's unique subculture of creative nomads. The narrative follows her through a "momentous year" defined by two parallel quests: searching for urban wildlife and searching for human intimacy through the screen of her phone. BOOK REVIEW: “The Instant” by Amy Liptrot

The Instant by Amy Liptrot is a slim, impressionistic memoir that serves as a sequel of sorts to her acclaimed debut, The Outrun . Moving from the isolated landscapes of the Orkney Islands to the urban sprawl of Berlin, Liptrot trades the struggle of addiction for the search for love and connection in the digital age.
