The Good Stranger

A Book For Our Time. “The next pandemic is a matter of if, not when.” Yes, that line is in this book. Yes, Meserve finished writing this book by Halloween 2019. No, this book doesn't actually have anything to do with that line in particular, it is simply a throwaway bit of a random interview that wasn't even Kate Bradley's interview. :D But what this book does focus on is the very same things Meserve herself has begun to focus on over the last few years, both with these Kate Bradley stories and with her own outreach: finding the everyday, unsung acts of kindness all around us. Reporting on that. Promoting that. Though with this book, for the very first time in a Bradley book - and contrary to what Ayn Rand may think -, we find someone truly altruistic. Someone genuinely not interested in any form of personal gain beyond the personal satisfaction that they know they did a good thing for someone who needed it. So let's take a page from Bradley and Meserve. Let's highlight some of these stories ourselves. Very much recommended.
