PRAISE
“A gorgeous and inspiring work of art on creation, creativity, the work of the artist. It will gladden the hearts of writers and artists everywhere, and get them working again with a new sense of meaning and direction. A stunning accomplishment.”
— Anne Lamott
“It really feels to me like the rare book that’s evergreen…It’s a book I wish I would have had on my shelf when I was 25. It’s a book I would give to people who are 25. Maybe it will be the ultimate graduation gift.”
— Steve Levitt, People I (Mostly) Admire
“Rick Rubin knows what he’s doing…His book is not just for musicians. It’s for everyone…A very clear and helpful and thoroughly road-tested vision of the stages of creativity.”
— The Atlantic
“There is perhaps no one better qualified than Rick Rubin to help people tap into their creativity.”
— Ryan Holiday
“I am reading Rick’s book and truly loving it. I want my kids to read it, want everyone to read it. It is a manual for creativity and creative thinking. A reference book for now and will continue to be of service in the future.”
— Mike D
“A work of transcendent literature, one that suggests the universe still smiles upon us despite all indications to the contrary.”
— The Wall Street Journal
“To Rubin, art is the ultimate form of self-actualization, a noble calling that enriches the soul . . . So, how does an artist move from conception to creation? Rubin methodically lays out the process, offering a mixture of encouragement, inspiration and tips . . . Rubin has written a fascinating book infused with deep thoughts, insight and, yes, lots and lots of creativity.”
— Los Angeles Times
