Transcript

3 thin books for girls with big brains. 1. Gift from the Sea, Anne Morrow Lindbergh. Versus from Anne Morrow Lindbergh. It's only 130 pages. It's really on, on identity and what it means to actually secure yourself as opposed to the roles that you play. In particular, if you identify as an artist and you have a family, this is a really good book to help you claim space for yourself. The second is A Room of One's Own from Virginia Woolf. Is 110 pages. Woolf really claims that you need your own room and your own money in order to create. Literally tying financial freedom to creativity. It's not dense. It's an essay and not a novel. Highly, highly looking book for the weekend. Third is On Beauty and Being Just, Elaine Scarry. This is 130 pages. It's a Princeton philosophy lecture that was then turned into a book. It covers why beauty matters ethically and not just aesthetically. You, and I hope you found this video helpful and insightful in some way. Add it for your next library trip and hit follow.
