Chapter 32
Solomon talks about how our lives are decentered because of postmodern societies. He says that narratives are able to give order to our chaotic lives and if you take those narratives away, like postmodern societies do, then everything becomes sort of off in this new society. He thinks that life becomes meaningless without the narratives there because narratives are so important to our lives.
