First published 2023
Jenny Odell has a problem: time is slipping away. In a desperate attempt to pause the relentless march of the clock, she embarks on a personal exploration of the nature of time itself. From the frenetic pace of modern life to the eternal cycles of the natural world, Odell navigates a labyrinth of scientific theories, philosophical musings, and intimate reflections. As she delves deeper, she uncovers the ways in which our perception of time shapes our very existence, and the surprising insights that emerge when we learn to slow down and embrace the present moment. Saving Time is a captivating journey that challenges readers to rethink their relationship with time and discover the profound liberation that can come from living in the here and now.
