Saving Time: Discovering a Life Beyond the Clock by Jenny Odell

4.0

---

4.5 stars* I devoured this. She mentioned many of my favorite subjects to research (like railways and timezones or the prison industrial complex and its relationship to time manipulation); however, I don’t know if her intent for us to “save time” or rather, claim back our time, was fully resolved. I gained the most from the introduction, where she says that we cannot frame “rest” as a form of productivity or preparation for more work. Despite it, I am left with unresolved feelings and questions.
