Book Reviews
A fascinating read by a hoarder about the psychology and culture of hoarding.
Melissa Clark, food writer - New York Times
In this hilarious memoir, Yourgrau regales readers with tales of his tendency to collect objects and keep them.... Eventually, as he explains with wit and honesty, he begins to deal with the clutter...as he makes space for himself and [the] girlfriend he shut out five years earlier.
Publishers Weekly
This isn't a how-to book.... Yourgrau shares histories of famous hoarders, psychological theories about clutter.... [The author] provides engaging company..., but the actual decluttering in the book might have taken less than a chapter.
