Title: Really disappointing
Review: I ordered this book eager to learn more about an aesthetic that I personally subscribe to and practice with my art. While I resonated with the introductory pages, once getting into the heart of its text I have been severely disappointed. In fact, I just can't even read it. I wish I could send it back and demand a refund. The author's discussion reads more like the typical home magazine articles that target women yearning for crafty ways to live. But what finally stopped my perusal looking for something more substantive was when she started describing how to fold laundry or hang the toilet paper roll--! Please. BTW, I am a middle-aged woman, so know that I am not dumping on that segment. It's just that this book is really a disappointment--and a testament to why buying books at your local independent bookseller, where you can pick them up and scan the inside before spending hard-won money on them, is the best bet.
