Heart Beats - A Memoir of The Millennial Generation on Social Media

Heart Beats is a deep X-ray of the Millennial Generation, a vivid depiction of the way Social Media has re-wired the way we think, feel, love, act and connect with each other in our relationships, friendships, daily lives and in our work. Written by the time the author was 21 before Facebook had become the giant social network it is today, Heart Beats captures the end of an era: the exact moment when social networks protruded into the Millennial generation's life and changed the history of connection as we know it. This body of work has an underlying love story as a theme, developed within the lives of the many characters who hustle their way through post-university jobs, in advertising agencies, and in cafes in European cities, painting an evergreen picture of the young clubbing culture and the dating culture just before Tinder disrupted sex and courtship. A psychologically charged memoir, which bridges or breaks the connections between its characters through Social Media mishaps, Heart Beats manifests the way our lives have profoundly changed as of the end of the 1990s, with the rise of modern communication technology.
