Focus First in Your Life: an hour on attention, for work and for everything else

Who is Marcus Thorne?

An hour, near enough to the minute. That is the shape Marcus Thorne has chosen for Focus First in Your Life, and for a book about attention the choice reads as part of the argument rather than an accident of production.

Our catalogue files it across business and careers and personal development, which is where the modern literature of concentration tends to sit. The subject belongs to the office and to the rest of life at the same time, and the better books in this line refuse to separate them.

The record holds nothing else, and we prefer to leave it that way.

Robyn Green reads it, and at this length the narration has to establish authority immediately, with no second act in which to win a listener round.

No verdicts have come in so far, which is normal for a recent arrival and simply means there is no crowd to consult yet. The obvious use for something this brief is the repeat listen: an hour is cheap enough to revisit whenever the working week starts fragmenting again, which is rather the point of the genre.
