About

The anti-clutter movement is having a moment. You may have heard about a book-an entire book-written on the topic of tidiness and how magical and life-changing it is to neaten up and THROW AWAY YOUR BELONGINGS. Yes, you read that correctly. It's time to fight that ridiculousness and to start buying even more stuff and leaving it any place you want. Guess what, neatniks? Science shows that messy people are more creative.* Being a slob is an art, and there's a fine line between being a consumer and being a hoarder. Don't cross that line. This book shows you how to clutter mindfully and with great joy. The results are mind-blowing. Your plants will stop dying. Your whiskey bottle will never run dry. Your drugstore points will finally add up to a free jar of salsa and some nice shampoo. You'll go shopping and discover that you've lost weight... It's time to take back your life from the anti-clutter movement. *As well as smarter and more attractive.

Reviews

"Takes on those true believers and their gospel of 'life-changing tidiness,' debunking several well-publicized myths in the process. Though...intended as parody rather than self-help primer, much of it carries the weight of truth."
Publishers Weekly
"A humorist's manifesto..."
