@moorehn Have you read Dana Thomas’ Deluxe: How Luxury Lost Its Luster? More than 10 years old, but details how LV was sliding downhill even then. Her chapter on the Hermès workshops is superb. THEY still do it right. But it will cost you…

I hear people yakking all the time about toxic men. But Claire Dederer has written a smart, entertaining book that alligator-wrestles the idea that sometimes, terrible people make art we wouldn't want to live without. On MONSTERS: https://t.co/R48qKC5jyc

@austinkleon Not a grief book per se (and filled with joy), but Jean Renoir’s Renoir, My Father?
