Dans une société où se multiplient les courants prônant une retraite hâtive et où notre rapport au boulot paraît de plus en plus indissociable de la quête du bonheur, René Bolduc s'intéresse à la relation intrinsèque que nous entretenons avec le travail depuis les débuts de l'ère industrielle. Faut-il souhaiter travailler le moins possible? Comment se fait-il que certaines personnes s'investissent tant dans leur travail alors que d'autres travaillent aussi peu qu'elles peuvent se le permettre?
