I am Going to Listen to Maira Kalman

 


Wichita, Kansas received a gift late in 2024 and that was a Barnes and Noble bookstore on the west side of town.  I personally have waited for this to happen since 2014.  It only took ten years. 


One of my first purchases, besides a grande size cafe peppermint mocha, was this beautiful book by Maira Kalman.  I adore her illustrations in ALL of her books and this one is now my new favorite.  If you look through the book and then start going through all the bits and pieces you can find about her on the internet, you may just find yourself wishing you could go out to lunch with her like I do.


This video says it all, in my opinion, about her, and her art, and her writing.  I am going to go live now while you watch this video titled How to Find Humor in Life's Absurdity.  Take care.
