  • Kyle Chayka, “The Longing for Less: Living With Minimalism” _ • “Delving into art, architecture, music and philosophy, [Chayka] wants to learn why the idea of 'less is more' keeps resurfacing … For Chayka, Kondo's method clearly doesn't spark joy. More generative for him are the examples of artists who became known as Minimalists even as they disavowed the term. Experiencing their work sharpens his senses; in place of the dull hum of overstimulation, Chayka gains a heightened existential awareness . . . The minimalism that Chayka seeks encourages not an escape from the world but a deeper engagement with it.” – Jennifer Szalai, The New York Times • • • • #kylechayka #minimalism #minimalist #culturalstudies #culture #art #artcriticism #philosophy #booklover #bookstagram #bibliophile #beaconny #hudsonvalley

  • Hadas Thier, “A People’s Guide to Capitalism: An Introduction to Marxist Economics” _ • “Economists regularly promote Capitalism as the greatest system ever to grace the planet. With the same breath, they implore us to leave the job of understanding the magical powers of the market to the ‘experts.’ _ • Despite the efforts of these mainstream commentators to convince us otherwise, many of us have begun to question why this system has produced such vast inequality and wanton disregard for its own environmental destruction. This book offers answers to exactly these questions on their own terms: in the form of a radical economic theory.” _ • • • • #capitalism #anticapitalism #marxism #marxist #economics #politics #philosophy #hadasthier #booklover #bookstagram #bibliophile #beaconny #hudsonvalley
