Description

The Monocle Book of Gentle Living, published by Thames & Hudson, is a book about slowing down and enjoying life. The richly illustrated book, compiled by the editorial team of the British lifestyle magazine Monocle, includes an illustrated guide to kindness, introductions to the happiest countries in the world, and stories of people who have taken a step back and slowed down.

Monocle has always been a champion of taking it slow. It has encouraged readers to dive into a lake and go for a run. To sleep well. To eat food whose makers are proud of its provenance. In a shouty, jabbing-finger moment in history, it has done its bit to argue for a new modern etiquette to be generous with our time, hospitality and forgiveness. Now its editors and correspondents have brought all of this together in The Monocle Manifesto for a Gentler Life, a book that urges us all to slow down, reconnect, make good things and see nice places. And it also knows when to wear a cheeky smile.
