A collection of short essays in classic Gaiman style, illustrated by one of my favorite artists that he works with. One essay on the power of reading and libraries, one on the creative process, and one on a career in the arts, are all strong and uplifting. But the first of the 4 essays, his credo on the strength and freedom of ideas, is a powerful call to arms I had to read twice, and would be happy to have a copy of on my own shelves.
