Ms. Magnusson shares her own experience, wisdom and often straight-forward, practical, Nordic advice on how to clean and clear our belongings so that we live a less cluttered life. Written after she was widowed, elderly and needing to downsize her life, she's often blunt about getting rid of what no longer serves us, even when it has great sentimental value and cherished memories. Her stories are heartwarming and serve to inspire us to think of those who'll eventually be charged with 'managing' our belongings. She often reminds us when we're deciding about whether to purge something, that whomever is left to take care of our stuff when we're gone, will deeply appreciate having less to go through. She has excellent suggestions for us, even though she says they may be hard to do. Go slowly, gradually and never, ever stop sorting, organizing, purging, she says. Only keep what you currently need and treasure. Her recommendations go for everyone, at any age, since she believes you can never begin too early. A contented, clean, clear life benefits us all, she says. Frees us up to discover and concentrate on what REALLY matters to us. Independent, strong, not relying on any of her five children, she exemplifies in this small book how we can enjoy the essence of our own lives. And be so considerate of our heirs. How very Swedish!
