Having and Being Had

In her thought-provoking new work, Eula Biss examines the complexities of living ethically within a capitalist society, reflecting on her own experiences as she navigates newfound property ownership and consumer culture. Through candid conversations in diverse settings, she explores themes of class, materialism, and the true value of time and possessions. Blending personal insight with broader societal questions, the book offers an engaging perspective on affluence, consumption, and the nature of luxury.
