About this listen
Something has changed in the way we live.
Not suddenly, not loudly — but everywhere.
Our ambitions feel familiar, yet slightly rehearsed.
Our pleasures are polished, but strangely thin.
We keep moving upward without quite knowing who built the staircase.
This book enters the rooms where status takes shape:
the gallery opening dressed as a social ritual,
the office that feels like a stage set,
the home improved until it resembles a photograph.
It is a study of progress — and its quiet costs.
A portrait of a civilisation that prizes momentum
while forgetting to ask where it is headed.
Nothing here is exaggerated.
Nothing is invented.
It is simply the story of the society we have become,
told clearly enough that we may finally notice
what has been guiding us all along.
