The truly lovely Alain de Botton talking about his latest book at the Queensland Irish Club, Brisbane, 22 April 2009. This event was presented by Brisbane's Better Bookshops and we would like to thank Alain for offering to do a second, back-to-back, session. We spend most of our waking lives at work — in occupations often chosen by our unthinking sixteen-year-old selves. And yet we rarely ask ourselves how we got there or what it might mean for us.
Comparing the videos of his talking to this (the Australian audience) and his home audience in the UK, you can see how much more receptive the Australians are of him in general, which is interesting - they're much faster and louder to laugh
