The book is voiced by an artificial intelligence specifically designed to read audiobooks. Less is more‘ has become the mantra of modern minimalist gurus, who promise that getting rid of excessive stuff is the key to solving most problems. Minimalism has gained enormous popularity. An entire industry has emerged that offers fashionable interior designs, minimalist clothing brands, gadgets, books, and podcasts dedicated to this trend. Kyle Chayka, a well-known cultural columnist, critic, and art historian, has been studying minimalist trends for years. He believes that the reasons for our desire to free ourselves from unnecessary things go much deeper than we think. The search leads the author to the philosophical and spiritual origins of minimalism, as well as to the stories of true minimalists – artists, architects, musicians. Seagull explores their extraordinary lives, the ups and downs, the places where they worked – from Manhattan lofts to the Texas desert to Kyoto alleys – and concludes that getting rid of things and listening to thematic podcasts can’t make you instantly happier. Minimalism isn’t a disease or a cure, it’s another attempt to live this life consciously and properly.‘
