FROM SARAH:

A paradigm shift in time management. This book had me underlining and saving passages left and right! There’s some weird philosophical stuff woven in here, but if you can take what you like and leave the rest, this one is bound to please anyone who wants to focus on what matters most and live with peace and intention.

FROM THE PUBLISHER: 

Time is our biggest worry: there is too little of it. The acclaimed Guardian writer Oliver Burkeman offers a lively, entertaining philosophical guide to time and time management, setting aside superficial efficiency solutions in favor of reckoning with and finding joy in the finitude of human life.

FROM SARAH:

My favorite book by Oliver Burkeman yet! I underlined and highlighted so many passages. This is structured to be read a little every day for 4 weeks, but I just gobbled it up in a week and then kept it on my favorite bookshelf so I can refer to it often. Recommended for anyone who likes to think about making good use of their time but also prioritizes relationships.

FROM THE PUBLISHER:

Addressing the fundamental questions about how to live, Meditations for Mortals offers a powerful new way to take action on what counts: a guiding philosophy of life Oliver Burkeman calls “imperfectionism.” It helps us tackle challenges as they crop up in our daily lives: our finite time, the lure of distraction, the impossibility of doing anything perfectly, the feeling that the world is spinning out of control.
