Description
Jon Ronson's second collection of Guardian journalism is a thought-provoking exploration of the human psyche. In What I Do, he delves into the manifestations of insanity in everyday life, sharing humorous and perturbing anecdotes about his own social missteps and obsessions. From awkward encounters with strangers to fixations on those around him, Ronson's stories offer a fascinating glimpse into popular beliefs and the complexities of human behaviour. He also investigates the world of hypnotism and self-help, meeting individuals who claim to have cured phobias and explored the cult-like atmosphere behind the scenes of a popular TV show. Through his narrative style, which blends investigative journalism with social psychology and humour, Ronson creates a compelling read that is both entertaining and thought-provoking.
