“If I need inspiration or feel like life isn't fair, I go to this book. ‘Detour on a Road’ generally doesn't bring positive emotions, but detour in life could be very beautiful, uplifting, encouraging and inspiring.” Jovita - Acupuncturist, Norwalk, Connecticut.

“UNESCO, the quintessential soft power organization of the United Nations and my professional home for 15 years, possesses one of the most exquisite and diverse art collections of the entire United Nations at its headquarters in Paris. Almost 300 works, just a part of the entire collection, are captured in this splendid artistic book by Austrian star photographer Lois Lammerhuber. Unencumbered by any thematic constraints includes all kinds of styles and forms of expressions, ‘Art for Peace’ was neither planned nor curated by anyone. It came about through gifts from artists, member states and personalities who wanted to support the UNESCO mandate of building the defences of peace in the minds of men.” Hans - Retired diplomat and art collector, Paris, France.

“I discovered Cindy Sherman’s ‘Untitled Film Stills’ while I was still studying, and it was a book, which greatly influenced me at the time. Author's ability to bring significance to seemingly unimportant and accidental situations is incredible. While I watched these series I admired possibilities of interpretation and how timeless they were, in spite of the change of views about people, relationships and society. She stays relevant. There is a good balance between abstraction and concreteness in the series. You can guess the place or time according to the fashion but it becomes insignificant since you pay more attention to what that woman represents in a frame. It is like in a mirror: as if society turned back to us.” Vilma - Artist/Photography Curator, Vilnius, Lithuania.

“I'm holding Michael Mahalchicks brand new book Body Work. It is 320 pages of awesomeness. Page after page of color photographs documenting his performance art, sculpture and dance, plus writing by friends and collaborators and an oral history narrated by Michael was so funny it brought tears to my eyes.” Anke - Artist, Brooklyn, New York.

“At a very young age we are separated from our intuition. We are taught what we are supposed to like or want and I personally struggled to like or be happy with the things that I was meant to want. It’s been a long journey to discover what I like, what I want, to unlearn everything that was repeated at me time after time and this book has been part of this journey. Every girl/woman should read this book in their journey to self discovery and loving who they REALLY are.” Carmen - Entrepreneur/Ocean Advocate, Brooklyn, New York.

“When I think of Pessoa I always have this mental image of the room at night in total darkness. There is a window in the room and the moonlight shines through it. And the dust just lingers, illuminated by the moonlight and never settles down. Very stabilizing image for me.” Aidas - Artist, Brooklyn, New York.

“‘Bodies’ - the book of the Year. A collection of short stories is astounding, gratifying, evoking emotions and thoughts. ‘Bodies’ is the second writing by my friend Akvilė. It reveals the author’s development and makes us think not only about the existence and being, about our feelings and emotions, but also about the meaning of our body, which we often use in pointless way. Every story reveals new colors, and the fun of reading is given by knowing that the writings were inspired by real events and real people.” Inga - Entrepreneur, Vilnius, Lithuania.

“History puts everything in its place. The ‘Last Summer of Lithuania’ marks the last days before the disaster, or, as Ignas Šeinius would say, before the ‘red flood.’ It was interesting to look at this period from a different angle. And maybe even learn about my ‘relative’ Zenonas Ivinskis, quoted several times in the book. Should I look in the archives for a possible connection to him?” Martynas – Entrepreneur-Artist, Vilnius, Lithuania.

“I chose this book because it has words to describe a way I’ve always known but could never express. It speaks of non-linear time, yarning, the natural essences of things along with the temporal world - of how they combine to form our existence beyond the physical.” Kerry – Entrepreneur, Brooklyn, New York.

“This book is like magic! In 1976, an Italian journalist living in Hong Kong was warned by a fortune teller not to fly in 1993. This book documents his year-long journey as he continues to work and travel throughout Asia by land and by sea. It is rich in history, colorful stories from the locals and continued visits to shamans and fortune tellers wherever he goes. It's a wonderful adventure and a fun read!” Autumn – Massage Therapist and an Interior Designer, Manhattan, New York.
