Reviewer

Reading this book is like interacting with a piece of art. The concise writing and playful drawings invite you to engage with the material - you could breeze through it in half an hour, or you could savour each section and exercise your imagination muscle as you chew on the meaning of its sparsely expressed key ideas, like “fiction feelings”, “art is proof of care", “art engagement starts where functional engagement ends.” I have limited knowledge of art and found it thought-provoking. -Erin, library team

Filled with drawings, aphorisms, and generous provocations, we added this one at the last minute because it’s something special. A small book that helps you make sense of humanity’s place in the aesthetic world, it’s disarmingly hopeful — and honestly, I think it is wonderful. -ane
