Covid-19 upended the world at
• • the beginning of 2020, and a
— new normal is ever evolving.
- + As we adjust to the changes,
1 * • =_ _ we are valuing, more than
"�► , u ever, our relationships. Our
connections with each other
RELATIONSHIPS-ART-MUSIC-BOOKS-NATURE-FOOD-ANIMALS and with things that provide
comfort give us a sense of
security in a world that
sometimes feels out of control.
Silicon Valley Reads 2021 features a selection of books centered on this theme of"Connecting" —the
universal human ability to build resilience by looking for people, places and things that provide comfort
and joy during tough times. Each book approaches the concept of connecting from a different vantage
point such as nature, music, food, animals, books and relationships. We hope that through these
books, everyone can find a connection and enhance their sense of well-being.
