Description
John Berger's final book, What Time Is It?, is a profound meditation on the nature of time. Assembled and illustrated by his longtime collaborator Selçuk Demirel, with an introduction by Maria Nadotti, this posthumous publication explores how our perception of time has changed in modern life.
Berger reflects on the tension between our assumption of a uniform, ceaseless passing of time, and the turbulent reality of lived experience. He argues that seizing the present moment can lengthen lifetimes, and that time is not just a measurable quantity, but also a concept that is constantly being exchanged for its content.
Through his characteristic blend of playfulness and insight, Berger invites us to rethink our relationship with time, and to consider what it means to live in the present. This thought-provoking book is a valuable addition to anyone's library of philosophical and cultural reflections.
