Sinopse
***Evening Standard's best non-fiction 2021***
'A brilliant, searing exposé of the lies underpinning work'—Owen Jones
'Work hard, get paid.' It's simple. Self-evident. But it's also a lie—at least for most of us. For people today, the old assumptions are crumbling; hard work in school no longer guarantees a secure, well-paying job in the future. Far from a gateway to riches and fulfilment, 'work' means precarity, anxiety and alienation.
In this audiobook, beautifully narrated by award-winning actor Libby Mai, Amelia Horgan poses three big questions: what is work? How does it harm us? And what can we do about it? While abolishing work altogether is not the answer, Lost in Work shows that when we are able to take control of our workplaces, we become less miserable, and can work towards the transformative goal of experimenting with 'work' as we know it.
Whether you listen on your commute, or while working from home, Lost in Work will empower you to see beyond the systematic problems you face at your job.
Resumo da Crítica
"A brilliant, searing exposé of the lies underpinning work." (Owen Jones)
"Fascinating and absorbing ... a corrective to the widespread view that anyone can find fulfilment through their job, if they just work hard enough." (Grace Blakeley, editor of 'Futures of Socialism' (Verso, 2020))
"Amelia Horgan is, in the words of organizer Fred Ross, a social arsonist. Her book will set your world on fire. Somewhere in our bones, we know that work is getting worse. But with this book, Horgan has provided the match and the kindling we need to burn the whole thing down." (Sarah Jaffe, author of 'Work Won't Love You Back' (Hurst, 2021))
