By Becca Rothfeld, All Things Are Too Small
Becca Rothfeld's All Things Are Too Small is a crisp, brilliant piece of cultural criticism that celebrates the messy, gorgeous excess of existence in a time when people are concerned with self-control. Rothfeld breaks down modern ideas of "clean," "calm," and "simple" and openly advocates for a return to pleasure, plenty, and desire. She does this by talking about everything from minimalist design to emotional suppression.
This thought-provoking first book mixes philosophy, feminism, and humor to remind us that maximalism is not a luxury but a necessity. This is a call to accept more, not less.
