Synopsis
Subtitled : Essays On Modern Life.
Modern life is full of choices. But how do we know what our best life looks like? And what if we get it wrong?
Incisive, wide-ranging and witty, How Do We Know We're Doing it Right? explores the questions, anxieties and agendas that consume our lives.
Pandora Sykes interrogates the stories we've been sold and the ones we tell ourselves - from happiness to wellness; womanhood to consumerism - in ways that are both surprising and reassuring.
How Do We Know We're Doing it Right? will spark a thousand conversations and encourage us to find our own path to contentment.

'Plainly and hotly, ahead of its time. It is a masterful collection of essays that I held in my hand like a tome. Citing everyone from Keynes to Kardashian(s), this brilliant, joyful, wise, necessary collection gives you everything you need. The writing is sharp and also lush. Irreverent yet emotionally intelligent. It is an encyclopaedia of tomorrow, a history of yesterday, and a means by which to understand and navigate the present.' - Lisa Taddeo, author of Three Women.
