Enjoying this book. The 'real heroism of everyday life' part reminded me of a comment by journalist and film-maker Adam Curtis :

'Someone once said to me that the most radical thing you can do these days is just not be self-expressive.' [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tVx3lt8ZKHw]

While this isn't where this article (or book?) seems to lead, it is a novel approach to some of the problems caused when our 'heroes' are to be found on stage and screen and not in everyday life.
