How I Became Stupid by Martin Page
The book follows the story of Antoine, an intelligent and introspective young man who becomes disillusioned with the burdens of his intellect and the complexities of modern life. Frustrated by his inability to find happiness, Antoine decides that ignorance might be bliss and embarks on a quest to become "stupid." He experiments with various methods, including alcohol, medication, and even a failed suicide attempt, in his pursuit of simplicity and contentment. Through a series of humorous and satirical events, Antoine's journey explores themes of existential angst, the pursuit of happiness, and the societal pressures that shape our understanding of intelligence and success.
