'Utterly fascinating' Daisy Goodwin, Sunday Times Benjamin Franklin
took daily naked air baths and Toulouse-Lautrec painted in
brothels. Edith Sitwell worked in bed, and George Gershwin composed
at the piano in pyjamas. Freud worked sixteen hours a day, but
Gertrude Stein could never write for more than thirty minutes, and
F. Scott Fitzgerald wrote in gin-fuelled bursts - he believed
alcohol was essential to his creative process. From Marx to
Murakami and Beethoven to Bacon, Daily Rituals by Mason Currey
presents the working routines of more than a hundred and sixty of
the greatest philosophers, writers, composers and artists ever to
have lived. Whether by amphetamines or alcohol, headstand or
boxing, these people made time and got to work. Featuring
photographs of writers and artists at work, and filled with
fascinating insights on the mechanics of genius and entertaining
stories of the personalities behind it, Daily Rituals is
irresistibly addictive, and utterly inspiring.
