Mark Manson

Have you ever wondered why it seems that more communication between people makes them more disliked? And have you ever wondered what makes people feel more anxious and unhappy despite the fact that their lives are getting easier?

Well, tighten your seat belts!... Uncle Mark is going to take you on a new journey! Just as The Art of Not Giving Questions our usual conventional wisdom about what makes us happy, Desolation: A Book on Hope calls into question all our assumptions about what makes life worth living.

We live in remarkable times! In material terms, everything is better than ever - we are now freer and happier than any previous generation in human history. But everything seems, for some reason, to be terribly bad. At this moment in history, when we have access to what our ancestors did not dream of in terms of education, technology and communications, many of us return and find ourselves under the weight of an overwhelming sense of hopelessness. So what's up? This is what Mark Manson is trying to get us out of.

Manson published his book “The Art of Indifference” in 2016, and he achieved brilliant success in defining the features of the hidden, persistent anxiety that permeates modern life. It has shown us that the restless drive of our modern life to seek happiness only succeeds in making us less happy than before. The result was a book that became a global phenomenon, selling millions of copies worldwide and #1 in thirteen countries.

And now, with "Desolation: A Book on Hope," Manson turns his gaze from the inevitable flaws in everyone's soul to the endless disasters in the world around us. Manson relies on the field of psychology research on these topics, and on the timeless wise ideas of many philosophers. He explains politics, religion, our relationships with money, the Internet and the world of entertainment, and how an excess of good things can eat us alive psychologically, and he unequivocally challenges our definitions of faith, happiness and freedom. Even for hope itself.
