- On Paradise Drive: How We Live Now (And Always Have) in the Future Tense
-
On Paradise Drive is the second book written by conservative and occasionally centrist New York Times commentator David Brooks, released four years after his first book, Bobos in Paradise. Using a similar style, his second work seeks to make a connection between the oft-maligned material strivings of middle-class Americans and a more profound focus on one's future, which he believes to be deeply ingrained in American society.
