Eye For Joy: Noticing the Good World Everywhere

A book about the impulse to wonder, the practice of noticing, and the inclination toward joy. Despite its difficulties, the good world is everywhere, and its wonders can be seen and savored every day.

Smart, witty, and full of heart, this collection of essays offers a fresh, joyous perspective reminiscent of Anne Fadiman, E.B. White, and Erma Bombeck. Each essay is a “diamond necklace” of moments that illuminate the beauty often overlooked, reminding readers that paying attention is a life-saving spiritual practice accessible to all. Perfect for fans of Ross Gay and lovers of literary nonfiction, this book is an uplifting gift and a bright reminder that joy can be found in the smallest details—if only we choose to look.
