Twenty Again - Chen Lim - Bog

In his second book, Chen Lim delves into a mind-bogglingly diverse array of topics, specifically in mind for those in their late teens to mid-twenties in the 2020s, the curious, and young at heart. The author of' A Fortunate Life - a Memoir of Friendship' writes: 'I wish that I've had a book like this in my twenties, or someone to hold my hand throughout those impressionable years.' He offers an unparalleled mirror to what Gen Zs' parents were like when they were younger, as well as a glimpse of what the future could hold for today's young adults living in Australia. What's the difference between equality and equity? How can I improve my sense of well-being? Does the 'Tall Poppy Syndrome' still exist in Australia? Should I prioritise marriage ahead of other forms of loving relationships? How do I navigate office politics? Filled with actionable tips, suggestions and intriguing insights, Chen's hope is for Generation Z to have a useful blueprint with which to navigate the ups-and-downs of early adult life, in their transition between the stages of maturity which await them. Now in his late forties, Chen reminisces on his younger years, and reflects on his present days while living in Sydney, and elsewhere. He shares his triumphs and tribulations - at times, some brutal truths - but with humour, generosity of spirit, and a sense of optimism.
