The Virgin between Hinduism and Buddhism.

We have as much access to entertainment as we have ever had in history, yet nothing catches our attention. What is really happening when we are bored, and what does it say about us? Kevin Gary is the author of the book Why Boredom Matters and the essay "To the Bored All Things Are Boring." In conversation with our associate editor Jeff Reimer, Gary dives deep into the nuances between situational and existential boredom, and how it affects our perception of life.
Kevin Gary is a professor at Valparaiso University, where he teaches theology, education, and in the Christ College Honors Program.
Jeff Reimer is an associate editor of Comment, and writes regularly on literature, art, faith, and culture.
