The Subtle Art of Not Giving a Fuck

a Counterintuitive Approach to Living a Good Life

The good: Funny. Good reminders about things I already knew. Good stories. The bad: At least two examples on issues the author hadn't experienced (trauma) that he got VERY wrong. (His "traumatic" childhood event = his parents' amicable divorce. Typical suburban kid...). His definition and "struggle" with trauma are thus appallingly pathetic and have nothing to do with actual trauma (violence of any sort, or any major experience that causes symptoms similar to PTSD). The meh: Some contradictory ideas that may be cleared up with better phrasing.
