Every day, we are bombarded with selfies and motivational posts from our smartphone screens - and we ourselves strive to look perfect in the eyes of others. But dissatisfaction with ourselves, the eternal traveling companion of perfectionism, can drive a person to madness and suicide. How has twenty-first century narcissism changed our lives and what does it consist of? In this book, British journalist Will Storr embarks on a long journey to find answers to these questions. The author tries living in a monastery, interviews Silicon Valley startups influencing the lives of millions, delves into the biographies of Sigmund Freud and Ayn Rand, and exposes the politicians who have invented that high self-esteem is good for us.
