About
A radical manifesto about doing what you love
Andy Merrifield offers a passionate tribute to the revolutionary spirit of the amateur-a figure who thinks outside the box, takes risks, dreams the impossible dream, seeks independence, and carves out a new world. Merrifield celebrates such square pegs as Charles Baudelaire, Fyodor Dostoevsky, Edward Said, Guy Debord, Hannah Arendt, and Jane Jacobs, each of whom shows us a path of unconventional wisdom and freedom.
The Amateur advocates urgently for the liberated life, one that creates the space to question authority.
