This Is Not A Book About Benedict Cumberbatch by Tabitha Carvan (New York, G.P. Putnam’s Sons/Penguin Random House, 2022)
Why you should read it: To (re)discover or (re)claim the inexplicable joy of something, anything! — something which does to not have to make any sense at all – all that matters is this “thing”brings you inexplicable, complete joy. Pottery, thrift store home furnishing finds, ballroom dancing, embroidering antique linens, the Bee Gees (or Benedict Cumberbatch). I don’t care what it is, the point (thank you Tabitha!), is it fulfills you.
