Can't Even: How Millennials Became the Burnout Generation

Can't Even: How Millennials Became the Burnout Generation is an incendiary examination of burnout in millennials, probing the social conditions that feed the pervasive anxiety, powerlessness, and disenfranchisement that have defined this generation. Author Anne Helen Petersen, a well-regarded writer and cultural columnist, delves into how societal pressures and the relentless pursuit of success have led to a state of chronic stress and disillusionment among young adults.

The book explores the intricate tapestry of factors contributing to millennial malaise, including the gig economy, student debt, social media pressures, and the ever-elusive concept of work-life balance. Through a blend of personal narrative, interviews, and cultural analysis, Petersen casts a critical eye on the institutions and societal norms that have left many feeling overworked and undervalued.

Ultimately, Can't Even acts as both a rallying cry and a beacon of understanding for a generation often mischaracterized, offering insights that resonate beyond the millennial cohort and into the fabric of modern work culture.
