The Life Laundry: How to Stay de-Junked Forever

The Life Laundry: How to Stay de-Junked Forever
  • Manufacturer:  BBC Worldwide Ltd
Do we really need books such as Dawna Walter's How To Stay De-junked Forever? Or TV series such as The Life Laundry, which it accompanies? The answer would appear to be a resounding yes, as more and more of us sink under an avalanche of objects that we are reluctant to get rid of. Writers such as Graham Greene and Jean-Paul Sartre believed that we are possessed by our possessions, and it's that philosophy that Walters is out to puncture with a vengeance. The great success of The Life Laundry: How To De-junk Your Life (which accompanied her first television series showing us how to clear the clutter) was a sage mixture of both fairly elementary advice and some cutting, not-so-obvious truths. Apart from those few people living in minimalist Japanese-style homes, many of us found much food for thought in Walter's book and programme, and a great deal of weeding out of old clothes, magazines, toys, etc, no doubt took place after she had shown us the way. In the new book, though, her concern is with making us alter our lifestyles completely in order that the clutter will never return. She teaches that, in order to create a functioning, organic environment, it's necessary to undertake genuinely life-altering procedures. There are motivational projects, storage tips (in which every iota of space in-house is intelligently utilised) and a room-by-room analysis of our storage solutions that are highly practical and (still more important) achievable. The format of the book is highly user-friendly, with attractive checklists, storage tips, floor plans and aspirational images. So if you feel you can add one more book to the mountains that you already possess, this had better be it. --Barry Forshaw  Author(s): Dawna Walter.  Binding Paperback.  Publisher(s): BBC Worldwide.  Label: BBC Worldwide.
