2. Book Review: Vystopia: The Anguish of Being Vegan in a Non-Vegan World by Clare Mann
Being vegan in a non-vegan world can be hard. Those who know about the
cruelties associated with animal agribusiness and other forms of animal
abuse are surrounded by people who routinely, and evidently happily, sponsor
activities that should be criminal. How do we maintain friendships and
family ties when our values differ so fundamentally from theirs, at least
when it comes to animal issues?
As a clinical psychologist, Clare Mann has had many clients whose distress
is related to their empathy with nonhuman victims of animal agribusiness and
their sense of alienation from a society that seems not only indifferent to
animals suffering but that actually endorses the cruelties. After
identifying struggles that many vegans face, she offers many helpful
suggestions. Some involve self-care, and some involve having compassion for
the struggles of people who resist a lifestyle that avoids harming animals.
I highly recommend this short and very readable book.
