Explaining the polarization of our times and the seemingly recent spin of hyper-masculinity in the 2024 Trump campaign through an analysis of world history from the Enlightenment to the present explains what we seek to understand as depressing as it all is.

Book follows the impacts of the slide back into totalitarianism in the lives of several people. The survey results were particularly revealing, reflecting how totalitarian strategies can move people to go along not just out of fear of the state but also the opposite.

Story engaging from beginning to end. I had been putting off tackling such a tome, like Proust. It never lagged. As always, Simon Vance did justice to the work.

This is a profound and extremely helpful book that turns time management ideas on their head for people perplexed by life’s big questions. Whether just beginning adulthood or in the final 600 weeks as I am, readers will find the book entertaining and thought provoking. Overnight it has turned from a distracted grandmother counting the milliseconds till the end of building legos with my toddler grandson to his most requested playmate.

A disturbing book for disturbing times. Had I read it while still in school, its impact on me would be long gone. In the context of our times, it is as though Orwell had seen this era, not just his own, to write such an eloquent cautionary tale.
