Years ago, when I first graduated from law school and got married my wife and I had enough money to buy a house [with the help of my wife's parents], but we had no money for furniture. So we started going to auctions and buying "fixer-upper antiques" [mostly 100 year old oak or walnut craft period pieces] so to speak - the ones with missing or damaged parts. We then went to work repairing and refinishing them. By the time we refinished them we had a houseful of antiques that saved us lots of money, had a history of their own, and our own story of fixing/recycling them that we learned as we went along. Thirty years later we still have that same timeless furniture. So when I read in short chapter 23: "To Have and to Hold" [p. 148] the author posing a "thought experiment" of ". . . [W]hat if we were to approach every object [we purchase] according to its potential for narrative and meaning - the way we give a toy to a child or a ring to a spouse? This would mean attending closely to the qualities of our possessions. It would require us to make a place for each thing in our lives, treating it as singular, special, and significant. . . [I]t would be better for us, better for society, better for the planet." He goes on to discuss nomadic societies and mountain hikers where specific objects matter. He then relates his theme to his work as a director at various museums. In his appreciation for meaningful things he relates it to such fields as technology, philosophy, medicine, arts and crafts, and more. His message is that we need to get to know things better, and why. So why is it important? When the current zeitgeist of "consciousness" asks us to be aware of our daily life, our physical actions tend to be the focus of said trend. Objects tend to be more in the realm of some "utilitarian" functionality. But we interact with objects daily just as much as we do with other people. The author has helped redefine that "relationship", our unfortunately so-called, non-smart [i.e. dumb] objects have a story to tell of where they came from, what are they made of, and why? As the author states, we need to find value in, and respect for, things because "An object cannot be good all on its own; it can only be good for someone. Getting to a better world of things is a group enterprise." You can learn a whole lot from this book, especially if you believe that our future goals of sustainable life practices on earth depend on what objects we buy and use [i.e. "qua"]. This is the most interesting book I have read to date on "why stuff matters and how it works", and what we can do to understand "the hidden wisdom of things", both qualitatively and qualitatively. It's a must read, and easy read, for everyone.
Expected some craft truths or maybe some zen inspiration but this book fell short.I guess it was aimed at those who don’t know Anything about materials or perhaps at academics who glossed through the pages.Disappointed in glib shallow truths.
An enjoyable survey of the role of handmade objects in contemporary life.
If you want to know something about crafts - this is not the book!
This book somehow manages to be packed with timely knowledge and be endlessly readable. My favorite sections are the family stories that illustrate changes in how people have related to practical and hand skills over the decades. With climate change poised to upend our material existence, the themes in this book offer a sense that a new, adapted world might not just allow us to survive but to make life better.
