Leonard Wolf, a retired professor now in his early eighties, is the
kind of person who likes to use a medieval astrolabe, dress in
Basque shepherd's clothing, and convince otherwise sensible people
to quit their jobs and follow their passions. Leonard believes that
inside everyone is an artist, and that happiness in life depends on
valuing and acting upon one's creative impulse. In "The Treehouse,"
her most personal book yet, Naomi Wolf outlines her father's
lessons in creating lasting success and happiness, and offers
inspiration for the artist in all of us.
Drawn from Leonard's lecture notes, the chapters of "The
Treehouse" remind us to "Be Still and Listen," "Use Your
Imagination," and "Do Nothing Without Passion," and that "Your Only
Wage Will Be Joy" and "Mistakes Are Part of the Draft." This is
a journey of self-discovery in which the creative endeavor is
paramount.
"The Treehouse" is a stirring personal history, a meditation on
fathers and daughters, an argument for honoring the creative
impulse, and a unique instruction in the art of personal
happiness.
