FEATURING:
“All the Beauty in the World: The Metropolitan Museum of Art and Me” by Patrick Bringley

Bringley’s memoir abounds with small details ... accrued over his own time working as a museum guard, but it also has grander subjects to address — namely, solitude, the staying power of art, and grief.

In the end, All the Beauty in the World is an empathic chronicle of one museum, the works collected there and the people who keep it running — all recounted by an especially patient observer.
—New York Times

As rich in moving insights as the Met is in treasures, All the Beauty in the World reminds us of the importance of learning not “about art, but from it.” This is art appreciation at a profound level.
