Place reservation for The art of discarding : how to get rid of clutter and find joyA combination of tiny homes and a love of stylish homeware has left Japanese people hungry for advice on organisation, decluttering and tidying up. Indeed, in this era of mass consumption, we are all drowning in 'stuff', despite our best efforts to keep on top of the clutter that collects in our homes, our office spaces and even our cars. Enter Nagisa Tatsumi and her bold suggestion - that it's OK to throw stuff away. Tatsumi argues that we need to learn to let go, and tackles head-on the psychological issues that people have with getting rid of things, in particular a reluctance to discard things 'just in case', the desire to hoard things, and guilt about getting rid of things that were given as gifts.
