Description
Lagom, the Swedish expression for "not too much, not too little," is spreading like wildfire across the world. In an age where time constraints and the pursuit of perfection reign supreme, lagom has come to be celebrated as a way of living a balanced and sustainable life. Here, Göran Everdahl delves deeply into the concept of lagom and the ways it manifests in our lives. It is entertaining, intelligent, and offers a keen eye for the details in our traditions, popular culture, and historiography. Text in English.
Lagom—the Swedish word for not too much, not too little—is spreading like wildfire around the world. The idea is to be consciously moderate and make your own decisions about career, clothes, travel, and food, treating yourself to enjoyment, health, and beauty without harming the environment.
Entertaining, witty, and with a sharp eye for detail, Göran Everdahl makes the case that lagom offers the perfect balance between work and home, wholesome and overindulgent eating, levity and sobriety. As a respected, widely read author and columnist, Everdahl covers popular culture and film. He is also a regular contributor to Swedish Public Television and Radio. -
