This was a real joy to read. He even managed to find a good story about cake! Even though this is nonfiction, it explains the desperate need for fiction, especially literary fiction, to the wellbeing of humanity. Definitely worth reading in 2025 America. Seriously, this is a cheery, encouraging, and engaging explanation of everything we’re getting wrong and how to fix it. It even includes the morning he woke up expecting to read about America’s first female president and woke up feeling horrible for America. It’s so fitting.
