    In January, 2018, UK Prime Minister Theresa May appointed a ministerial lead on loneliness “to address the loneliness endured by the elderly, by carers, by those who have lost loved ones—people who have no one to talk to or share their thoughts and experiences with”.In this way, Ball's work is an intricate study of the debilitating effects of loneliness: a 16-year-old boy wants to end his current life because he is “deeply misunderstood, right from the get-go”; an otherwise healthy wife and mother seeks the Cure because the “duration of her interest in her life was shorter than the duration of her life”....his mind is so “fogged” that he requires lifelong assistance.
