Saving Time is an expose of our past, an antidote to our present, and a manifesto for the future. It is rigorous, compassionate, profound, and hopeful. It is one of the most important books I've read in my life * Ed Yong, author of An Immense World * A revealing exploration of the forces that keep us locked in a shallow, commodified and adversarial relationship with time. But it is also a portal to a far richer alternative. To read it is to slip through the bars of our modern temporal prison and experience how freedom might feel * Oliver Burkeman, author of Four Thousand Weeks * The rarest kind of intervention: it alters you immediately, and then it lasts ... Saving Time is an inimitable gift * Jia Tolentino, author of Trick Mirror * A rare book that does more than meet the current moment, it defines it * Booklist * Odell's journey to find the best way to use our limited time on earth is an eye-opening look at what it really means to be alive * TIME *
