When did you last have time to be bored?
Lethargic inactivity can be debilitating and depressing, but for those living in the modern world the pendulum has swung far in the other direction. We live in a hectic, hyperactive age. Excessive busyness and overfilled schedules are now the norm, but the effect of over-stimulation on our mental and emotional lives can be damaging. How might we address and counter such problems in order to experience our lives more fully? In How to Be Bored, Eva Hoffman explores the importance we place on success, effectiveness and alertness in today's competitive society. In a world where it's almost impossible to be idle, she draws upon lessons from history, literature and psychotherapy to help us appreciate real reflection and, yes, even boredom, to enjoy the richness of our inner and external lives.
'The School of Life is dedicated to making our lives clearer, less puzzling and more enjoyable - by studying the big themes of life with the help of culture. This new series of self-help books continues to reinvent the genre, making it into something more serious, profound and genuinely helpful'
Alain de Botton, Founder of The School of Life
'The School of Life offers radical ways to help us raid the treasure trove of human knowledge'
