Description:
Book of the 2010's - January 2020
English | 132 pages | PDF | 104 mb
Ten years is a long time, especially in the fast-paced world of the 2010s. Improved communications technology has meant that we have spent the past decade immersed in an inescapable cycle of 24-hour rolling news. Events from around the globe have impacted our lives, some up close and personal, some far away, but all memorable.
There have been tragedies and terror, but there have also been astonishing instances of people coming together in the face of loss, attack, climate change and much more, as well as fantastic examples of people worldwide celebrating art, music, culture, sport, romance, and even the silly side of life. There have been political shenanigans and astonishing revelations, fairytale weddings and inspirational speakers, but one thing can be said for sure - the last decade was never dull. Join us on a whistlestop tour as we remember the events of the 2010s, acknowledging the bad and celebrating the good.
