BrainCandy 102: We will all become boring

from BrainCandy English · host Ralph Uwe Ohnemus

I recently came across the essay "We will all become boring" by bestselling author Louise Perry. And it has stayed with me ever since. Perry deals with the increasing loneliness in the modern Western world. She finds causes in liberal individualism and prosperity, among other things. Her analysis is certainly gloomy - but she sees opportunities if we realize the impending consequences in good time and take active countermeasures. For me, the essay is a perfect impulse for the new year and perhaps also a motivator for a good resolution. The year is still young. And it certainly won't be boring.
