The Luminous Solution

An inspiring work about creativity and resilience from the multi-award-winning author of The Weekend.

Book Hero Magic formatted this description to make it easier to read. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! Description

The Luminous Solution reveals that a rich inner life is not solely the domain of the arts. The joys, fears, and profound self-discoveries of creativity—through the act of making or building anything that wasn't there before, any imaginative exploration or attempt to invent—are the birthright of every person on this earth. If you live your life with curiosity and intention, or aspire to do so, this book is for you.

In this essential, illuminating volume, award-winning writer Charlotte Wood shares insights gained from a career spent paying close attention to her own mind, the world around her, and the way she and others work.

Through research and decades of observant conversation and immersive reading, Charlotte draws on what artists can teach us about inspiration and hard work. She explores how to pursue truth in art and life and how to find courage in difficult times, facing down fears and persevering when things seem hopeless.
