The Art of Imperfection: Simple Ways to Make Peace with Yourself
Images of perfection seem to be everywhere--on television, in the movies, in ads, in magazines--not to mention in our own fantasies and notoriously selective memorics. Among the places where perfection is conspicuously absent, however, is in everyday reality. The way we look, the people we love, the places where we live, and the jobs we hold always leave something to be desired. This book offers ten meditative essays that remind us we don't need to be perfect to be successful and happy. Veronique looks at the art of being wrong, disorganized, silly, and neither rich nor famous. She explains how style is having nothing to wear, how chaos can improve your daily life, and why less sexy is more sexy.
