Monocle has always been a champion of taking it slow. It encourages us to reconnect, make good things and see nice places. And it also knows when to wear a cheeky smile. Chapters include: an illustrated guide to being nice, respecting your neighbour and controlling your social media rants; profiles of the happiest nations - and the least lonely; how to build a house that’s good for you and your family; a celebration of locally made food; objects to own that will give pleasure for years - and much more.
