deTour's Book Club: The Lonely Century deTour 讀書會:《孤獨世紀》We live in an era of unprecedented connectivity, yet we are immersed in unprecedented loneliness. Social media has accustomed us to wearing masks, hiding our true selves in digital interactions, which in turn creates greater distance between people. The book The Lonely Century accurately captures this contemporary condition. Using the book as a starting point, this book club will explore modern loneliness and the fluidity of identity from psychological, social, and philosophical perspectives. Why do we constantly switch between different personas in virtual and real-life spaces? Why does a hyper-connected society make it harder to form genuine relationships? Join writer Eva Wong in conversation with Peter Chan, Managing Director of TreeholeHK, rediscover what it means to be truly connected – to others, and to ourselves.生活在史上最緊密連結的時代,卻也深陷前所未有的孤獨。社交媒體令我們習慣戴上面具,在數位互動中隱藏真實自我,反而讓人與人之間更加疏離。 《孤獨世紀》一書精準刻劃了這種當代處境。這場讀書會將以書為引,從心理、社會與哲學角度,探討現代人的孤獨感與身份游離。我們為何在虛擬與現實之間不斷切換不同面貌?高度連結的社會,為何反而讓人難以建立真實的關係? 活動由作家黃怡主持,她將與「樹洞香港」董事總經理陳健欣展開對話。誠邀您參與其中,在喧囂中尋找真實連結的可能。"———————————————————————————————————————Moderator 主持:Eva Wong 黃怡(Writer, Editor 作家、編輯)Speaker 講者:Peter Chan 陳健欣(Managing Director of TreeholeHK Limited 樹洞香港董事總經理)Rottenamimi 蛀蟲米(YouTuber, Actress 演員)Language 語言:Cantonese 廣東話 Fee 費用:Free 免費———————————————————————————————————————Terms and conditions:Once the application process is completed, all personal data of both successful and unsuccessful applicants will be kept in the database of PMQ Management Co.
