The Burnout Society by Byung-Chul Han
3.0
3.5 - led to a lovely discussion with friends, definitely topical but missed its mark to me sometimes by being a bit contradictory to some introduced points. also
to discuss problems without solution under his philosophical perspective (expansion on negativity, tiredness, etc.) was not entirely my jam but maybe that’s just the style of continental philosophy?? maybe he was just poking fun at the modern reading brain? still enjoyed it though, feels like it was meant to read and immediately discuss among others.
