"Hunter Prosper’s Stories from a Stranger beautifully reflects what I’ve found in years of listening to strangers: when people share their stories, we feel less alone. It reminds us how deeply human it is to want to be heard, and how powerful it is to simply listen." -Brandon Doman, creator of The Strangers Project
"People can only stay strangers for so long. This book begs you to see the depth and brilliance in every single person, especially the ones you don’t YET know. Stories From Strangers is a rolodex of hilarious, heartbreaking, and meaningful experiences. Time and time again I found myself tearing up, laughing out loud and sitting back in my chair to think long and hard about what I just read." -Julian Shapiro-Barnum, comedian, writer and host of Recess Therapy
“Every page offers a beautiful slice of the human experience. The stories and the strangers who tell them will stick with you long after you read.” -Josie Balka, poet and bestselling author of I Hope You Remember
A collection of one hundred deeply personal stories-covering love and heartbreak, growth and resilience-brought to life by the creator of the wildly popular TikTok account @HunterProsper.
Every person has a story.
Dick knew that it was love at first sight when he saw Nancy across the church steps-they got married a week later and have been best friends ever since, still going strong over fifty years later. Nathalia's first boyfriend told her that her facial scars made her even more beautiful, and it gave her the confidence to become the strong woman she is today. When Ghada learned that her young son was ill, she refused to give up-he's thriving over twenty years later.
We're more alike than we are different.
In Stories from a Stranger, Hunter Prosper-creator of the viral social media phenomenon of the same name-brings together these three and ninety-seven other unforgettable, never-before-published interviews that illuminate the depths of the human heart. He asks the questions that matter most: Who was your greatest love? What's the most painful thing you've been told? What do you see when you look in the mirror? The answers reveal raw, breathtaking glimpses into lives filled with love, resilience, and hope.
As an ICU nurse, Hunter has stood at the crossroads of life and loss, bearing witness to whispered confessions, final goodbyes, and moments of unexpected grace. In the midst of turmoil, he turned to storytelling-first to make sense of his own emotions, then to give voice to those who could no longer speak. What started as a simple question evolved into a movement, resonating with millions longing for connection.
Moving, humbling, and profoundly inspiring, Stories from a Stranger is more than a book-it's a celebration of our shared humanity and the invisible threads that bind us together.
