Everything We Touch: A 24-Hour Inventory of Our Lives Paperback – International Edition, December 18, 2015

by Paula Zuccotti (Author)
3.7 out of 5 stars 13 ratings
*Features exposed spine showing stitching and enabling book to open completely flat!* What's the first thing we touch when we wake up? How do our favourite things reveal our hopes and fears? Can objects tell the story of our lives? Imagine how your day would look if you recorded everything that you touched. From smartphone to soap, from spice to spoon... what if they were all brought together in one place? Would they tell a bigger story? Driven by this idea, Paula Zuccotti travelled around the world to find people from an incredible array of ages, cultures, professions and backgrounds. She asked them to document every object they touched in 24 hours. Then she gathered those objects together and photographed them in a single shot. From a toddler in Tokyo to a cowboy in Arizona, from a cleaner in London to a cloister nun in Madrid, Every Thing We Touch is their story told through the objects they own, consume, need, choose, treasure and can't let go. Each image is mystery, a story, a work of art. Each is a moment in time: a life and a world reflected back at us. every-thingwetouch.tumblr.com

    5.0 out of 5 stars A BOOK WORTH TOUCHING
    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on November 28, 2015
    Format: PaperbackVerified Purchase
    Put simply, I love this book - it is wonderful. Not only is its subject matter and content both original and intriguing, but also the book in itself is just beautiful. One will immediately sense that every physical aspect of it has been meticulously thought out (just as the laid-out items themselves) - from the attention-grabbing sleeve to the quieter exposed spine, which allows you to lay the book flat and immerse yourself into the so very different lives that its subjects lead. I can't think of a more prefect gift - I've already sent one to my sister in LA, my mother in Mallorca, and I could't resist one for myself here in London. Oh, and it's my best friend's birthday in January - done.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Beautiful reflection on how we live our lives today
    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on November 30, 2015
    Format: PaperbackVerified Purchase
    This is an amazing book. Documenting the lives of 62 people through beautiful photography of the objects they touch in a day, with supporting commentary, it is both an insightful showcase of individuals across the world, and a wonderfully artistic book, perfect for the coffee table. The mat finish cover and exposed spine immediately single this out as a special kind of book, and the photography inside is quite mesmerising - I never thought I would find bananas and shaving foam so interesting! A brilliant way of celebrating diversity across the world, but perhaps it's the similarities between people that are most interesting.

    3.0 out of 5 stars Exposed spine is a "feature"...
    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on March 19, 2017
    Format: PaperbackVerified Purchase
    I sent my first copy back to Amazon as the spine was exposed. Now I read that this is some kind of a "feature"! Yes it makes the book lay flat, but it comes across as a binding error. The book has a wrap-around paper/card flap sellotaped to the actual cover to display the title of the book and the author. This kind of defeats the purpose of the "trendy" disregard for the spine. Given that the book is written by someone who writes about "things" we touch, I would have thought a little more thought would have been put into this element of design. The content of the book is interesting and thought provoking.

    Beautiful book. It really makes you think about how you live your own life compared to others. It's definitely not something that's going to gather dust on my bookshelf, I'm sure it's something I'm sure I'm going to go back and look at again and again.
