From the author of the international mega-bestseller The Subtle Art of Not Giving A F*ck comes a counterintuitive guide to the problems of hope.
It\'s another counterintuitive romp through the.
With his usual mix of erudition and where-the-f*ck-did-that-come-from humor, Manson takes us by the collar and challenges us to be more honest with ourselves and connected with the world in ways we probably haven\'t considered before.
He openly defies our definitions of faith, happiness, freedom--and even of hope itself.
He looks at our relationships with money, entertainment and the internet, and how too much of a good thing can psychologically eat us alive.
Drawing from the pool of psychological research on these topics, as well as the timeless wisdom of philosophers such as Plato, Nietzsche, and Tom Waits, he dissects religion and politics and the uncomfortable ways they have come to resemble one another.
Now, in Everthing Is F*cked, Manson turns his gaze from the inevitable flaws within each individual self to the endless calamities taking place in the world around us.
The result was a book that became an international phenomenon, selling millions of copies worldwide while becoming the #1 bestseller in 13 different countries.
Instead, the subtle art of that title turned out to be a bold challenge: to choose your struggle; to narrow and focus and find the pain you want to sustain.
He showed us that technology had made it too easy to care about the wrong things, that our culture had convinced us that the world owed us something when it didn\'t--and worst of all, that our modern and maddening urge to always find happiness only served to make us unhappier.
In 2016, Manson published The Subtle Art of Not Giving A F*ck, a book that brilliantly gave shape to the ever-present, low-level hum of anxiety that permeates modern living.
What\'s going on? If anyone can put a name to our current malaise and help fix it, it\'s Mark Manson.
At this moment in history, when we have access to technology, education and communication our ancestors couldn\'t even dream of, so many of us come back to an overriding feeling of hopelessness.
Yet, somehow Everything seems to be irreparably and horribly f*cked--the planet is warming, governments are failing, economies are collapsing, and everyone is perpetually offended on Twitter.
Materially, Everything is the best it\'s ever been--we are freer, healthier and wealthier than any people in human history.
We live in an interesting time.
