L'antimanuel: La Cafardise is the result of a year spent living, exchanging ideas, and taking analog photographs around a singular way of life, existing on the margins of dominant norms. The book sheds light on the tensions, doubts, but also the forms of freedom that emerge from these alternative paths. Its aim is not to offer a model to follow, but rather to open a space for reflection on the ways we inhabit the world. The structure of the book is built around 14 fundamental needs, reexamined through the lens of a moneyless lifestyle. Each need becomes a starting point for rethinking everyday life: eating, housing, socializing, moving around, learning… all explored both from a theoretical perspective and through concrete, accessible techniques grounded in lived experience. Half critical essay, half practical notebook, L'antimanuel: La Cafardise is intended for those who already embrace other ways of living, as well as for those who simply wish to take a closer look.
