Are You Serious

Description

Lee Siegel, author of Falling Upwards, Not Remotely Controlled, and Against the Machine” “delivers a provocative critique of modern lightness and frivolity, and a timely guide to being serious in an unserious age. In the vein of “The Culture of Narcissism,” “Shop Class as Soulcraft,” and “How Proust Can Change Your Life,” Siegel offers a revelatory look at how a serious bearing is vital to accomplishing any worthwhile goal in an era increasingly defined by a sardonic approach to life.
