Redstone Diary 2027

The 2027 edition of the cult diary explores the manifold expressions of "living well" There is a difference between living well and well-being: the 2027 Redstone Diary explores the many faces of how we can find the good life, or find solace in its absence.Can joy be found in a moment-a kiss, a spoonful of tiramisu, the memory of last night, the quiet repose of reading under a tree? Or is it a practice that takes a lifetime, money and good fortune to fulfill-Thoreau`s retreat into the woods at Walden, the contemplation of the night skies, the studied nonchalance of bourgeois pleasures or even the satisfaction of baking, which one writer calls "love made visible."From the perfect cocktail recipe to the most effective break-up line to Marlene Dietrich`s leopard-skin boots-through words and images-the 2027 Redstone Diary is a primer in how to live. With an introduction and texts selected by author and novelist Andrew O`Hagan, the journal offers advice, inspiration and moments of wonder and contemplation throughout the year.
