Fascinating read, Arno! Oh, those tricky hero meets...

"Every stream of elevator Muzak, every pinging phone, every grating television is not merely a moment of distraction – it is a message. And the message is this: “Your own quiet life is unworthy of your attention.”" A new gem from Michael Harris theglobeandmail.com/opinion/articl…

My first cover story for the The Globe and Mail 💜
