A Chapter That Defines Our Age of NoiseWhy “Zoom and the Rise of the Talking Head” Is the Standout Chapter in Back to Me

Today on the newsletter, I want to spotlight a chapter from Quentin Drummond Anderson’s new book Back to Me: The Global Art of Talking Without Listening — a chapter that, in my view, captures the modern world with uncanny clarity.

As someone who reads and reviews dozens of manuscripts each year for The Writers Collective, very little surprises me anymore. But Chapter Five, “Zoom and the Rise of the Talking Head,” stopped me in my tracks.

It’s sharp. It’s funny. It’s painfully recognisable. And it explains something we all lived through — but never fully understood.
