Brief Anthology of You

'What if the point of our time here on earth is not to figure out our purpose and fulfill it? What if the point is to enjoy?'The meaning of life-as told by a 21-year-old. A Brief Anthology of You is a collection of personal essays and stories that contemplates the time we have together on this earth. Author Emily Tang attempts to answer the question, 'what is the point?' with heartwarming reflections on the subtle things that make life worthwhile, from thank you notes to conveyor belt sushi to kitchen floors. By highlighting the small windows of joy in life, this book soothes the claustrophobia that comes with the modern world and offers solace through simple existence. Each story is a reminder to seek meaning in the unassuming corners of life, in sunlight streaming through wooden blinds, in the various ways people make instant ramen, and in the short seconds it takes to pull an espresso shot.It is a reminder that by being here you are doing enough.
