Product Description
Saving Time
Author(s): Jenny Odell
Format: Paperback
Discovering a Life Beyond the Clock
We're living on the wrong clock. Now is our moment to rethink.
In this provocative follow-up to How to Do Nothing, Jenny Odell challenges our cultural obsession with productivity. Drawing on philosophy, ecology and art, Saving Time argues that time is not money - it's life itself.
Odell explores how the 'clock of capitalism' dictates our days and disconnects us from natural rhythms, proposing instead a more humane, ecological understanding of time rooted in seasons, community and care. This Sunday Times-bestselling thinker offers both critique and comfort, inviting readers to pause, breathe and imagine freer ways of living.
