When Bruce Feiler completed his last book, which introduced readers to his idea of the 'nonlinear life,' he realized that the greatest source of change in the world is work. Unprecedented numbers of Americans are quitting their jobs, rethinking their routines, breaking away from stifling preconceptions. The most stifling iron cage of all is the premise that each of us must have a 'career.' We must follow a linear path of success, choosing a dream early, locking into a trajectory, always climbing higher, until we reach 'the top.' Few ideas have created more misery, squandered more human potential, or ruined more relationships. Feiler has resolved to help all of us imagine better. The result is another milestone, an urgent cry for each of us to follow our own individual dream of success. The culmination of thousands of hours of interviews with an extraordinarily diverse and inspiring group of Americans, The Search assembles a mosaic of stories truly representative of our time.
