Life can be hard: your lover cheats on you; you lose a family member; you can’t pay the bills. And it can be great: you’ve had the hottest sex of your life; you get that plum job; you muster the courage to write your novel. Sugar - the once-anonymous online columnist at The Rumpus, now revealed as Cheryl Strayed, author of the best-selling memoir Wild - is the person thousands turn to for advice. Tiny Beautiful Things gathers the best of "Dear Sugar" in one place and includes never-before-published columns and a new introduction by Steve Almond. Rich with humor, insight, compassion - and absolute honesty - this book is a balm for everything life throws our way.

Critic Reviews

"A realistic and poignant compilation of the intricacies of relationships." ( Kirkus Reviews)
"These pieces are nothing short of dynamite, the kind of remarkable, revelatory storytelling that makes young people want to become writers in the first place. Over here at the Salon offices, we're reading the columns with boxes of tissue and raised fists of solidarity, shaking our heads with awe and amusement." (Sarah Hepola, Salon)
"Charming, idiosyncratic, luminous, profane.... [Sugar] is remaking a genre that has existed, in more or less the same form, since well before Nathanael West’s Miss Lonelyhearts first put a face on the figure in 1933.... Her version of tough love ranges from hip-older-sister-loving to governess-stern. Sugar shines out amid the sea of fakeness." ( The New Republic)

Behind the questions that might sound 'oh so American', lie the answers that cover the general, all encompassing, human condition. Even when I could not personally relate to Sugar's answer or the very fact that I squirm when ever I hear someone say 'here's what you should do'... I found myself mindlessly nodding, while listening to her words. Tiny beautiful things is almost spiritual in its honest way it connects to it's readers. Having said that, one can not neglect the power of narration. Cheryl's voice plays a big role in making her words leave the impact that they do. it soothed me into listening to the whole book in couple of days.

A perfect tiny beautiful thing!

Ideally the name of the book should have been Big Beautiful Things cos that's what it is about. The problems shared were big, but the solution were bigger, the sentiments were big, the experience of the author was big. thanks dearest Cheryl Strayed aka Ms Sugar

All the stories are very real, heartfelt and in many places relatable. Sugar did a great job and hope she continues doing the same.
