You know how every non-fiction book in the last three years has been about the author doing one odd, life-disrupting thing for one full year and then writing a book about it? I'm reading one of those books a week for one full year and then writing a book about it. It's My Year Of Everything, and you're soaking in it. CONTACT: Dave Holmes/davedotcom@mac.com
Catching Elephant is a theme by Andy Taylor
GIVE IT UP.
Look how happy that lady is on that cover! It’s kind of terrifying! I have found that people only strike that pose when they are a) women, and b) in advertisements. “This purchase has set me free,” Cover Lady seems to say, “even though it’s the purchase of a book about not purchasing any more things! Wheeee!”
I don’t know what she’s so happy about; the upper part of the cover indicates that she’s giving up utensils and upside-down taxis. Cover Lady has had a weird life. Really, it’s a miracle this woman found herself in the predicament of having too many possessions, because as far as I can tell, she doesn’t possess thumbs.
Whatever. I want to feel that joy. Bring it, Mary Carlomagno. (And then take it back out with you. I have too much crap.)
