Produktinformationen zu „The Time Seller “
This second book of business fiction from Fernando Trías De Bes, coauthor of the international bestseller Good Luck, reads like a whimsical fable/polemic. This is a funny (and perhaps even existential) meditation on time, work, meaning, and the true costs of "selling out" to the system. The Time Seller is an acerbic commentary that seeks to awaken those bound to a routine that has become the source of alienation. Well written and truly original, it is destined to become a cult classic.
Klappentext zu „The Time Seller “
The Time Seller, the second book of business fiction from Fernando Trías de Bes--author of the international acclaimed bestseller Good Luck--is not your standard business model book nor a "get with the program" corporate drone story. It breaks the mold and offers a funny (and perhaps existential) meditation on time, work, meaning, and the true costs of "selling out" to the system. Trías de Bes has written an acerbic commentary that seeks to awaken those bound to a routine that has become the source of alienation.
