Small wonders from big thinkers in 'Seeing Things'

Brought to us by British “one man art movement” Julian Rothenstein’s Redstone Press—publisher of such cult literary-art-design publications as the Redstone Diary and Everyday Play: A Campaign Against Boredom and the profound Black sociology infographics compendium, Black Lives 1900: W.E.B. Du Bois at the Paris Exposition—we are pleased to announce Redstone’s aptly-titled, newest wonder-inspiring offering, Seeing Things: The Small Wonders of the World According to Writers, Artists and Others. Culled from the Instagram pages of well-known artists, writers, musicians and archivists including David Byrne, Nicole Eisenman, Garth Greenwell, William Kentridge, Hari Kunzru, Elif Shafak and Jarvis Cocker (whose emblematic sentiment, “the best things in life are right under your nose,” is quoted on the cover), this is a book to pause and smile with.
