{"product_id":"monocle-book-of-gentle-living","title":"The Monocle Book of Gentle Living","description":"Monocle has always been a champion of taking it slow. It has encouraged readers to dive into a lake and go for a run. To sleep well. To eat food whose makers are proud of its provenance. In a shouty, jabbing-finger moment in history, it has done its bit to argue for a new modern etiquette to be generous with our time, hospitality and forgiveness. Now its editors and correspondents have brought all of this together in \u003ci\u003eThe Monocle Manifesto for a Gentler Life\u003c\/i\u003e, a book that urges us all to slow down, reconnect, make good things and see nice places. And it also knows when to wear a cheeky smile.
