LITTLE PASSING THOUGHTS by Orfeo Tagiuri

About The Book

"Orfeo Tagiuri scribbles day and night on a small notebook. He tears away some of the drawings, to throw in the bin because they’re not good enough, to give away to friends — to have a laugh or to remember a moment — or to sell to a stranger who shared the exact same feeling or thought, for what Orfeo draws with a black pen are universal emotions. This pocket-sized book, compiling over 350 drawings, is meant to be carried everywhere and opened just when one needs to take a break, get inspired, and breathe. “Each of these drawings is fished out from the river of little passing thoughts. I don’t know where they come from but sometimes I take the time to gently scoop them up and set them down. They are a great joy, relief and meditation to make. I hope you can feel that” — Orfeo Tagiuri"*

Our Recommendation

This is a book for these tough days, where everything seems heavy and we need a simple small delight to inspire a smile within. It feels like a printed tender hug, like a sweet message from a friend. A charming little comfort treasure box. And do I have to add it? A wonderful gift to a loved one (or yourself).
