The Wage Slave’s Glossary
Etymologists of the world, unite! You have nothing to lose but $12.95. That's the message of this light-serious compilation against capitalism run amok, a follow-up to this duo's 2008 The Idler's Glossary, "a life guide for the idle, the leisured and the slack." -The Globe and Mail
The Idler's Glossary was released when the world was experiencing its biggest economic collapse since the Great Depression. The Wage Slave's Glossary comes as we climb out of it, and continues to explore and challenge the interconnected world of work and leisure and labor, and how the language we use continues to keep us in chains. Fabulously illustrated by Seth.
