En savoir plus sur le livre

The book explores the paradox of modern non-freedom, juxtaposing traditional images of oppression with contemporary consumerism. It critiques how the allure of technology and consumer goods, like iPads and iPhones, shapes perceptions of worth and happiness in the Western world. The narrative delves into the unsettling realities behind these products, including ethical concerns and the commodification of beauty, prompting readers to reconsider the true cost of their desires in a society increasingly defined by materialism.
