A review by mateuslevisf
Tempos Líquidos by Zygmunt Bauman
3.0
I liked it, particularly the last two chapters and the whole discussion around the ambivalent nature of urban life with its tendency to cause both mixophilliac and mixophobic feelings - that felt like a very apt description of what I've seen my entire life living in a capital. It's a bit unfortunate that the book doesn't go in possible solutions to the problems it very adequately describes, but I grant that a disclaimer about that is in the beginning of the book so one shouldn't really expect it. Nevertheless, I think it's a good book to think more critically about urban space, the society we live in and some of the moral and social tendencies we might see unraveling in modern times.
