‘Slow down. Have fun. Live well.’
A bimonthly magazine helping readers ‘to lead more fulfilled lives’ through idleness.
Common associations of the colour red include Republicanism, rage and danger - a fitting choice for the cover of issue #101 of The Idler. Inside you'll find Ferdinand Mount's tongue-in-cheek how-to guide on being a ‘power-hungry tyrant, ’ ‘the reality of the world of Wolf Hall, ’ as told by historian Eamon Duffy, plus plenty more to make light of seeing red in these uncertain times.
On the Journal:
‘Tom Hodgkinson launched The Idler in 1993 as a celebration of loafing, taking the name from a 1758 essay by Dr Johnson… ‘Every man is, or hopes to be, an idler.’
