Saving Time Summary

Saving Time: Discovering a Life Beyond the Clock (THE NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER) by Jenny Odell

**THE NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER**

We're living on the wrong clock. And it's destroying us.

'To read it is ... to experience how freedom might feel' Oliver Burkeman, author of Four Thousand Weeks


Our life is dominated by the corporate clock that so many of us contort ourselves to fit inside. It wasn't devised for people, but for profit. We need to embrace a whole new concept of time: one that gives us and our planet a brighter future.

In Saving Time, Jenny Odell, bestselling author of How to Do Nothing, examines how we got to the point where time became money. Taking inspiration from the pre-industrial, ecological and geological rhythms of our world, she offers us radical new models to live by that make a more humane, more hopeful existence seem possible.

Now is our moment to rethink. And if we do, time might just save us.

'An inimitable gift' Jia Tolentino, author of Trick Mirror

'One of the most important books I've read in my life' Ed Yong, author of An Immense World

Saving Time Reviews

It is in the gap between present and future, where outcomes are not yet determined, that Jenny Odell enters with her paradigm-destroying new book ... [A] grand, eclectic, wide-ranging work * New York Times *
Odell's latest book, Saving Time, is great at analysing where a lot of our notions about how to use our time came from (hint: capitalism). * RTE Ireland *
One of President Barack Obama's 'Favourite books of 2019' * President Barack Obama on How To Do Nothing *
