Hello LVers,

Here is my kinda book. The right to be Lazy by Paul Lafargue is a Marxist work on how the working class are being deluded into thinking that relentless work is the only way for a better life by Greed Heads (Bourgeois). Even if its written in 19th century, it does apply to the professional class in 21st century. Interested readers please your interest in the thread below.

ooh, I just picked up a non-PD book about similar topics, The Problem with Work by Kathi Weeks, to read for research. so this text seems fascinating just in connection with that.
I'd be interested in reading for it.
