How to be perfect by michael schur5/12/2023 ![]() ![]() ![]() Schur combines his penchant for comedy with discussion of some of the world’s most thorny questions, like “We’ve done some good deeds… so can we take three of these free cheese samples from the free cheese sample plate at the supermarket even though it clearly says ‘one per customer?’” Based on his research for The Good Place, Schur changed writing genres from 30-minute TV comedy to a debut book, How to Be Perfect. ![]() After that show concluded, Schur created The Good Place, a show I have not watched that is imbued with concepts from moral philosophy (each character, it seems, embodies a different philosophical strain). I know of Michael Schur as co-creator of Parks and Recreation, a rare TV show I have watched and enjoyed (minus season 1). This certain class of people might also dearly want to be able to talk about the Trolley Problem or existentialism intelligently with their friends because our friends can or because it’s fun. How to Be Perfect speaks most clearly to a class of rich, highly educated people that both its author, Michael Schur, and I (and perhaps you) fall into: people who want to use their privilege to help others and improve the world rather than to exploit others and serve oneself. ![]() Brobots by Trevor Barton5/12/2023 ![]() ![]() Just enter the address you are interested in in the search bar and select the “Search“ button. ![]() You can visit and take advantage of the free address search.

Kafka began writing it in 1914, but it wasn’t published in any form until after his death. But if you’re willing to invest in a new collection, bringing together materials connected to The Trial could turn out to be an extremely interesting and rewarding experience. Collecting copies of the book, as well as ephemera related to it, won’t be an inexpensive task. ![]() Indeed, you might want to start a collection of various editions and translations of the novel. But if you have read the work and have considered its significance not only as a piece of modernist fiction but also as a literary work that comments upon the bureaucratic idiocy of government and the perceived rule of law, then you might want to do more than just read this book. If you haven’t read Franz Kafka’s 1914 masterpiece The Trial, we recommend picking up a copy today. ![]() ![]() ![]() He also studied English Language & Literature at Lincoln College, Oxford University from 1996 to 1999.
