Clutter

Jennifer Howard's Clutter offers a thoughtful exploration of our complex relationship with material possessions, inspired by her personal experience of clearing her mother's house. Combining personal narrative with thorough research, the book examines the historical and societal forces that have contributed to consumer culture and clutter's darker implications, including environmental impacts and mental health issues. With sharp insight, Howard situates her analysis in a modern context marked by rapid consumerism and the popularity of decluttering trends.
