After all, the prevailing idea of economic progress — as measured by gross domestic product — depends on expanding the clangor of industrial production, Big Data and the attention economy.

Even if noise cancellation is turned off, you won’t have to crank the volume on these to overcome the clangor of a subway car or the general loudness of a busy street.

It barely mattered, night or day, weekend or not, when the clangor of old metal cabinets being heaved into dumpsters would invade Michael Riley’s Manhattan apartment, disrupting all manner of peace.

From upstairs came a steady clangor, to which Ana was unwaveringly attuned, but paying particular attention whenever the noise briefly subsided.
