Pop-up Book Club: The Gentle Art of Swedish Death Cleaning

On facing our eventual demise, beyond estates, wills, and directives, there is an additional consideration: what to do with all our stuff? The Swedes have a name for this, döstädning, or death cleaning, the gentle art of minimal owning to lighten the burden on our survivors. With kind humor and a necessary lightness for the potentially hard topic, Magnusson details the concept brilliantly in The New York Times bestseller, The Gentle Art of Swedish Death Cleaning. This pop-up book club conversation will be facilitated by space doula Tana Paddock and organization and productivity consultant Jo Durocher. Limited copies of the book are available to borrow at the first-floor information desk.
