Wabi-sabi (侘寂) represents Japanese aesthetics and a Japanese world view centered on the acceptance of transience and imperfection.
Really wanted to like this book as it is a topic that truly interests me, but didn't like the writing style. I gave up part way through the writing about the tea ceremony. I might come back to it in the future.
Helpful read. Repetitive at times. Missing some salient points, like the quality of objects that age well. All in all, a good introduction.
