Have you ever bought a book, put it to the side for a long time, and just so happen to pick it up at the right moment in your life? Roman Muradov’s On Doing Nothing is — to quote the intro — “not a book about not doing anything; it’s a book about doing nothing.” When I was working my way through my unread books during quarantine, I hit a point where I wanted something small, an easy book to conquer and this one was waiting for me. What I wasn’t entirely expecting was to get an exploration of what we do — and what we can do — during life’s quiet moments.
