**THE NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER**
We're living on the wrong clock. And it's destroying us.
'To read it is ... to experience how freedom might feel' Oliver Burkeman, author of Four Thousand Weeks
Our life is dominated by the corporate clock that so many of us contort ourselves to fit inside. It wasn't devised for people, but for profit. We need to embrace a whole new concept of time: one that gives us and our planet a brighter future.
In Saving Time, Jenny Odell, bestselling author of How to Do Nothing, examines how we got to the point where time became money. Taking inspiration from the pre-industrial, ecological and geological rhythms of our world, she offers us radical new models to live by that make a more humane, more hopeful existence seem possible.
Now is our moment to rethink. And if we do, time might just save us.
'An inimitable gift' Jia Tolentino, author of Trick Mirror
'One of the most important books I've read in my life' Ed Yong, author of An Immense World
Saving Time featured on the New York Times bestseller list 26.3.23

Saving Time (Paperback)
Anbieter: CitiRetail, Stevenage, Vereinigtes Königreich
Verkäuferbewertung 5 von 5 Sternen
Paperback. Zustand: new. Paperback. We're living on the wrong clock - one that tells us time is money - and it's destroying us. Here is a radical argument for other ways of experiencing time that offer hopeful possibilities for ourselves and the planet. Our daily experience is dominated by the corporate clock that so many of us contort ourselves to fit inside. It wasn't devised for people, but for profit. Saving Time rearranges how we experience time, and imagines a world not centred around work, the office clock, or the profit motive. Explaining how we got to the point where time became money, Odell offers us new models to live by - inspired by pre-industrial cultures, ecological, and geological time. In this dazzling, subversive, and deeply hopeful journey, Jenny Odell takes us through other temporal habitats: as planet-bound animals, we live inside shortening and lengthening days, alongside gardens growing, birds migrating, and cliffs eroding; the stretchy quality of waiting and desire, the slow but sure procession of a pregnancy, or the time it takes to heal. She urges us to become stewards of these different rhythms, to imagine a source of meaning outside the world of work and profit, and to understand that the trajectory of our lives - or the life of the planet - is not a foregone conclusion. Now is our moment to rethink. And if we do, time might just save us. A radical argument that we are living on the wrong clock, one that tells us time is money, and that embracing a new concept of time can open us up to bold, hopeful possibilities from the New York Times bestselling author of How to Do Nothing.
