by W M S Coperthwaite ✦ Review by David Lorimer, April 2004
This beautiful book is a meditation on simplicity as reflected in the author's life - which follows in the tradition of Thoreau and Whitman. It is also about real quality of life that is not available through mass consumption, covering education, work, non-violence, wealth and beauty. There are poems, craft instructions, inspiring quotations and photographs, all of which give the book a very special texture. It enables the reader to step back and reflect on their own lifestyles and values in a creative and engaging way.
