Review: Every time I lend this book to someone it disappears and a few weeks later I hear they’ve cleared the garage or the attic, or they’re doing a car boot sale (similar to a yard sale). Due to this, I have bought this excellent book quite a few times over the years. It remains my favourite book on minimalism and a fantastic insight into another culture. I like that it isn’t an instruction manual, like some other books on the topic, but a series of small essays on various aspects of minimalism and the minimalist lifestyle as adopted by the author. I am not a minimalist, well not to any extreme but I do often declutter and clear space. It really helped me let go of the idea that memories are external and connected to objects - turns out, for me anyway, that they’re not. Things are just that … things. Sometimes pretty, often useful but it would seem that the emotions attached to them come from within and memories are just as effectively accessed through other means. I know it’s not for everyone, some are truly maximalists, and they are unlikely to be reading this. In all these years of decluttering I can honestly say I have not missed a single item I’ve donated or sold and it all started with this book.
Review: Book arrived dirty and with marks on it. Disappointed. The book itself is brilliant.

En ayant lu le résumé, ce livre m'as intriguée. Je suis intéressée par le minimalisme depuis un moment, ai eu plusieurs lectures sur le sujet, mais ce livre là fais parti de mon top 3 ! J'aurais du le lire bien plus tôt ! C'est un livre que je pense garder à vie, car oui, il change la manière de penser et donc, la vie ! Je suis très heureuse de cet achat ! LE livre sur le minimalisme à avoir lu, c'est CELUI LA ! Juste une petite attention, le livre est écrit en Anglais. :)
