Hammer Head: The Making of a Carpenter
April 7, 2015
Is there a genre about twenty-somethings have a career crisis? If not, this book could start one.
Nina was an editor at a newspaper in Boston when she got tired of the daily grind and one day, she quit. On a whim, she applied to be a carpenter's assistant and she got the job, despite not having any experience. This book is about the months she spent learning to build stuff with her hands, and learning to let go of her old life.
I was drawn to this book because I used to be a web editor, and I could relate to her frustrations about the insatiable needs of the Internet. (Just post one more story! One more video! One more slideshow! One more quiz! Gaaaa. The Web Beast never sleeps.)
I like stories about people learning something new and changing their lives for the better, but the reason this memoir only got three stars was because it is overwritten. Seriously, ridiculously, eye-rollingly overwritten. Nina is the kind of writer Nina mclaughlin biography children!
