$4960 per square foot. What a deal! At least you could go to Harrod’s regularly.
Book Review: 21 Dog Years
21 Dog Years : Doing Time @ Amazon.com by Mike Daisey
My rating: 3 of 5 stars After seeing Mike Daisey’s The Last Cargo Cult — a monologue about his travels to Vanuatu at the Woolly Mammoth theater — I was really excited about this book. In the show he presents a nuanced view of capitalism and western culture, raising provocative questions about “value” and why we behave the way we do.
Unfortunately the book doesn’t extend the ideas or offer anything close to the same level of analysis. Though it explores the connection between capitalism, society and personal wellbeing, it feels like a juvenile first draft of what he ended up writing for his performance.
Recommendation: Go see Mike Daisey in person as soon as you can. Think twice before reading this book.
