EverythingIsF*cked

New York Times Bestseller

From the author of the international mega-bestseller The Subtle Art of Not Giving A F*ck comes a counterintuitive guide to the problems of hope.

We live in an interesting time. Materially, everything is the best its ever been - we are freer, healthier, and wealthier than any people in human history. Yet somehow, everything seems irreparably and horribly f*cked - the planet is warming, governments are failing, economies are collapsing, and everyone is perpetually offended on Twitter. At this moment in history, when we have access to technology, education, and communication that our ancestors couldnt even dream of, so many of us feel a sense of pervasive hopelessness.

Whats going on? If anyone can put a name to our current malaise and help fix it, it's Mark Manson. In 2016, Manson brilliantly gave shape to the ever-present, low-level hum of anxiety that permeates modern living in The Subtle Art of Not Giving A F*ck. He showed us that technology had made it too easy to care about the wrong things, that our culture had convinced us that the world owed us something when it didnt - and worst of all, that our modern and maddening urge to always find happiness only served to make us unhappier. Instead, the "subtle art" of the title turned out to be a bold challenge: to choose our struggles, to narrow and focus, and to find the pain we want to sustain. The book became an international phenomenon, selling millions of copies worldwide while becoming the #1 bestseller in 13 different countries.

Now, Everthing Is F*cked sees Manson turn his gaze from the inevitable flaws within each individual self to the endless calamities taking place in the world around us. Drawing from the pool of psychological research on these topics, as well as the timeless wisdom of philosophers such as Plato, Nietzsche, and Tom Waits, he dissects religion and politics and the uncomfortable ways they have come to resemble one another. He considers our relationships with money, entertainment, and the internet, and how too much of a good thing can psychologically eat us alive. He openly defies our definitions of faith, happiness, freedom, and even hope itself.

With his usual mix of erudition and where-the-f*ck-did-that-come-from humor, Manson challenges us to be more honest with ourselves and to connect with the world in ways we probably havent considered before. Its another counterintuitive romp through the pain in our hearts and the stress of our soul. One of the great modern writers has produced another book that will set the agenda for years to come.
