Becoming a barbarian - jack donovan

Becoming a Barbarian is a follow-up to Donovans cult hit, The Way of Men.

Good, modern, civilized Western men today are expected to think like citizens of the world - obligated to everyone and no one.

Natural, meaningful tribal connections have been substituted with synthetic, disposable consumer identities.

Without a sense of who they are and what group they have a place in, modern men are becoming increasingly detached, disoriented, vulnerable, and ever more easily manipulated.

Becoming a Barbarian attacks the emasculated emptiness of life in the modern West - The Empire of Nothing -and shows men how to think tribally again.

It reveals the weaknesses of universalistic thinking, and challenges readers to become the kind of men who could go all-in and devote their lives to one group of people above all others.

Becoming a Barbarian is about finding a tribe, finding a purpose, and choosing to live the kind of life that undermines the narrative of the Empire.
