Everything That Remains by Ryan Nicodemus
Like Henry David Thoreau, but with Wi-Fi. -Boston Globe What if everything you ever wanted isn't what you actually want? Twenty-something, suit-clad, and upwardly mobile, Joshua Fields Millburn thought he had everything anyone could ever want. Until he didn't anymore. Blindsided by the loss of his mother and his marriage in the same month, Millburn started questioning every aspect of the life he had built for himself. Then, he accidentally discovered a lifestyle known as minimalism.and everything started to change. That was four years ago. Since, Millburn, now 32, has embraced simplicity. In the pursuit of looking for something more substantial than compulsory consumption and the broken American Dream, he jettisoned most of his material possessions, paid off loads of crippling debt, and walked away from his six-figure career. So, when everything was gone, what was left? Not a how-to book but a why-to book, Everything That Remains is the touching, surprising story of what happened when one young man decided to let go of everything and begin living more deliberately. Heartrending, uplifting, and deeply personal, this engrossing memoir is peppered with insightful (and often hilarious) interruptions by Ryan Nicodemus, Millburn's best friend of twenty years.At the age of 30, JOSHUA FIELDS MILLBURN left his corporate job to pursue his dream of being a full-time novelist and writing instructor. His essays at TheMinimalists.com have a monthly readership of over 100,000 people. Millburn has been featured in the Wall Street Journal, USA Today, NPR, CBS, NBC, FOX, and Zen Habits, and is the bestselling author of three fiction and four nonfiction works. He was born in 1981 in Dayton, Ohio, and now resides in Montana. Visit JoshuaFieldsMillburn.com for additional information.
