You followed the path.
Go to school. Get a job. Work hard. Build a life.
It was supposed to work.
But something feels off.
Burnout is everywhere. Wages haven't kept up. Work dominates your time, your identity, and your sense of stability. And even when you do everything right, the outcome rarely matches the promise.
The Work Illusion breaks down why.
This book exposes the structure behind modern work culture and reveals how it was built, not as a natural system, but as a constructed one shaped by history, incentives, and psychological conditioning.

Not with rigid answers or prescriptions, but with clarity.

But:
"What kind of life do I actually want to live?"
The Work Illusion is for anyone who has ever felt that something about modern work doesn't make sense, and is ready to understand why.
