How Did You End Up Here?: The Surprising Ways Our Questions Connect Us (TED Books Book 30)

What do the questions we ask others, even complete strangers, reveal about ourselves? And can the answers we seek shape our own lives and dreams? Davy Rothbart wants to know. Rothbart â€” a writer, reporter, and documentary filmmaker â€” is known for his curiosity about other peopleâ€™s lives. Whether itâ€™s the folks he interviews as a frequent contributor to public radioâ€™s This American Life, or the people he connects with through the deeply personal notes and letters published in his annual magazine, Found, Rothbart has honed a unique talent for compassionately probing into the lives of strangers and drawing out surprisingly revealing stories of beauty, heartbreak, and humor. In How Did You End Up Here?: The Surprising Ways Our Questions Connect Us, Rothbart collects more than 100 of his all-time favorite questions to ask someone youâ€™ve just met, generated by people around North America whom heâ€™s only just met himself. Rothbart opens his toolbox, sharing secrets of his trade, stories from the road, and strategies for approaching people and pushing past superficialities while also taking a close look the questions themselves â€” the funny, strange, surprising questions we all want to ask the people around us.
