A "Post-Utopian" book. Breezy read with interesting points scattered throughout, but at the same time unnecessarily long. It employs Socratic method, presenting dialogues between a teacher and his students across six chapters (from Monday to Saturday).

These discussions explore various utopian concepts, such as emotional utopia, governance utopia, cultural utopia, post-scarcity utopia, post-work utopia, technological maturity etc.
The book also explores the challenges of deep redundancy—how to attain interestingness, fulfillment, richness, purpose, and meaning in a post-utopian society.
