ATTENTION: Dispatches from a Land of Distraction by Joshua Cohen EPUB
"The nonfiction novel of our moment" (Jonathan Lethem): a wide-ranging, rule-bending collection reclaiming the power of attention in an age of constant distraction
"Joshua Cohen may be America's greatest living writer." (The Washington Post)
One of Granta's Best of Young American Novelists, Joshua Cohen arrives with his first collection of nonfiction, the culmination of two decades of writing and thought about life in the digital age. In essays, memoir, criticism, diary entries, and letters - many appearing here for the first time - Cohen covers the full depth and breadth of modern life: politics, literature, art, music, travel, the media, and psychology, and subjects as diverse as Google, Donald Trump, Bernie Sanders, fictional animals, Gustav Mahler, Aretha Franklin, John Zorn, landscape photography, fake Caravaggios, Wikipedia, Gertrude Stein, Edward Snowden, Jonathan Franzen, Olympic women's fencing, Atlantic City casinos, the closing of the Ringling Bros. circus, and Azerbaijan.
Throughout ATTENTION, Cohen directs his sharp gaze at home and abroad, calling upon his extraordinary erudition and unrivaled ability to draw connections between seemingly unlike things to show us how to live without fear in a world overflowing with information. In each piece, he projects a quality of thought that is uniquely his and a voice as witty, profound, and distinct as any in American letters. At this crucial juncture in history, ATTENTION is a guide for the perplexed - a handbook for anyone hoping to bring the wisdom of the past into the culture of the future.
Praise for ATTENTION:
"Cause for celebration and close study... [Cohen] will hunt after neglected shards of the past, minor histories, and charge them with an immediacy in the present.... He is experimenting with the essay form much more, and more cleverly, than any major American writer today." (The Wall Street Journal)
"In Attention, Joshua Cohen makes an eclectic argument for how to improve our lives.... [He] tackles a surprising range of subjects to underline distraction's role in our fraught predicament and to argue that paying attention could help us get out of it.... When it comes to making sense of our times with verve and imagination, few authors are more rewarding." (Financial Times)
