Description

#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • In Atlas of the Heart, Brené Brown writes, “If we want to find the way back to ourselves and one another, we need language and the grounded confidence to both tell our stories and be stewards of the stories that we hear. This is the framework for meaningful connection.”Don’t miss the five-part Max docuseries Brené Brown: Atlas of the Heart!In Atlas of the Heart, Brown takes us on a journey through eighty-seven of the emotions and experiences that define what it means to be human. As she maps the necessary skills and an actionable framework for meaningful connection, she gives us the language and tools to access a universe of new choices and second chances—a universe where we can share and steward the stories of our bravest and most heartbreaking moments with one another in a way that builds connection. Over the past two decades, Brown’s extensive research into the experiences that make us who we are has shaped the cultural conversation and helped define what it means to be courageous with our lives. Atlas of the Heart draws on this research, as well as on Brown’s singular skills as a storyteller, to show us how accurately naming an experience doesn’t give the experience more power—it gives us the power of understanding, meaning, and choice. Brown shares, “I want this book to be an atlas for all of us, because I believe that, with an adventurous heart and the right maps, we can travel anywhere and never fear losing ourselves.”

Library Journal Review

Brown's (Dare To Lead) presentation of her latest best-seller, also an HBO Max docuseries, creates such an incredible audio experience that her many fans will likely want to listen even if they've already read the book in print. Brown, a professor, clinical social worker, leadership consultant, and popular podcaster provides an exceptional performance as she describes illustrations in such a way that listeners won't feel the need to refer to the included PDF and tells stories that aren't in the book--leaving listeners to feel as if she's giving them a private lecture on her topic: the importance of precisely naming our emotions and experiences. Brown and her research team surveyed thousands of people over five years and found that, on average, people could identify only three emotions as they were experiencing them: anger, sadness, and happiness. Having a more nuanced understanding of our emotions, Brown believes, will help us to process them in more productive and healing ways. She groups 87 emotions and experiences into categories and offers helpful strategies for coping with them. VERDICT Most libraries will want multiple copies of this outstanding audio production.--Beth Farrell
