Join us at Berkelouw Books Paddington for a conversation with Vera
SPROTHEN ABOUT HER BOOK 'FLOW GENERATION'. Remember when clouds were
in the sky, phones were in the wall and work was something we ‘went
to’? Technology has changed that. Secure jobs have become insecure
gigs, home is where the Wi-Fi is and our boss is an algorithm.
And us? We’re all over the place, unsure about the future. All the
old paths are crumbling. Unlike our parents we have no clear idea how
to make it to retirement. It’s like our lives have turned liquid.
How will we earn money tomorrow?
Is our degree still relevant?
Will we ever afford a house?
Have a pension?
Live happily ever after?
Original, uplifting and peppered with a pinch of philosophy, Nicoló
Andreula and Vera Sprothen’s Flow Generation is a timely and
colourful guidebook for our fast-paced economic reality. It shows
readers how to move beyond fear and brave the unknown, as we enter a
future that seems more unpredictable than ever – and yet it’s
better than we think.
