The longing for less

 

The longing for less: living with minimalism / Kyle Chayka, 258 pgs.

This isn't a book about getting rid of your clutter.  Instead it looks at the basis for minimalism.  It includes information about more than just "stuff."  Less sounds, for example, simplicity in art and light, design and architecture.  How do you live a lifestyle instead of just removing clutter.  There are philosophical origins for minimalism and Chayka gets into the nitty gritty.  I enjoyed learning more about this and not having a prescribed plan to declutter. I didn't exactly understand what I was getting into when I started the book but ended up taking time and reflecting on what I read in each chapter.
