If you're among the droves of despondent twentysomethings having come of age in the time of microwaving and the Facebook overshare, you're not alone. I'm right there with you, and apparently so is Paul Huhn.The Existential Millennial Crisis is an oft-meandering, perennially thought-provoking read full of uncomfortable truths for the old and young alike. Its acute knowledge of the state of pop culture strikes a chord deep within the most hopeless of us, and I think I'd take great joy in trying to watch a middle aged person frustratingly read it (at least for the five minutes they'd give it before hitting a bitcoin reference or something derogatory about Jesus and discarding it as "rubbish").Huhn knows his audience because he is it - and the tributaries of thought ever-present in his writing style echo the overflowing minds of today's youth. Give this a read and prepare for simultaneous mental exhaustion and clarity.
