For five years, I've been sending out a Sunday email with brief comments on art that's inspiring, thought-provoking, skillfully executed, and/or beautiful. Ayn Rand described art as emotional fuel. My goal-and my selfish pleasure!-is to help you find more of that fuel and use it more efficiently. How? By showing you wonderful art and provoking you to think about why you enjoy a particular piece ... or don't. This volume offers 172 recommendations, of which 54 were originally sent only to paid supporters. Among them are paintings, sculptures, architecture, decorative arts, music, film, TV shows, novels, dramas, short stories, poetry, and select works from museums and exhibitions.
