Live Through This: An Anarchist's Antidote to Despair
Not yet published
Expected 20 Jan 27Why does modern life feel so bleak? Capitalism has monopolised our sense of what is possible, and politics is just a spectacle - a fictional universe of heroes and villains where we are merely the audience.
The common sense of politics - voting, petitioning, and protesting - dooms us to failure. This manufactured hopelessness makes us forget the reality of our own lives, the joy and power that lie latent within us.
In Live Through This, Shuli Branson argues that the way out isn't through, but around. With a sidestep, we can forge exciting new ways of living.
Philosophising on the anarchy of hope, she finds ways to remake the world with our everyday knowledge and practice, independent of any order or authority, inviting us to steal our imagination back and create a life that doesn't just survive collapse, but builds rebellion.
