<p>
Before the Industrial Revolution there was simply no time for leisure or free time unless you were in the fortunate upper classes.
There was simply work, eat and sleep, until you died. Now we have boredom, probably the most dangerous emotion of all. Boredom
affects everyone, humming away in the background and causing occasional social unrest. In a one-off event in collaboration with The
Leeds Library, Michael Jenkins curates a diverse range of responses to why we put up with monotony.
