Through seventeen essays of remarkable depth and insight, Robinson explores the dilemmas of our modern predicament and examines the ideas that have inspired her throughout her life.Exquisite and bold, The Givenness of Things is a reminder of what a marvel our existence is in its grandeur - and its humility.'I surrendered to the beauty of Robinson's prose and the breadth of her learning . . . my mind was expanding and thrilling to her ideas . . . Robinson's words might outlive us all' Mac Liu, Independent'What comes across most forcefully in these beautifully written essays is Robinson's sense of awe at the universe's wonders, and her boundless desire for knowledge' Ian Critchley, Sunday Times'The most engrossing book I read this year' Frank Cottrell Boyce, Observer
