Nina MacLaughlin’s day
job as a journalist is steady, brings in a solid paycheck and yet she knows it
isn’t what she wants to do for the rest of her life. Answering a Craigslist ad
for ‘carpenter’s assistant: woman strongly urged to apply’ Nina tries out and
gets the job. To start with she doesn’t know a Philips from a Flathead but
she’s willing to learn and Mary is more than willing to teach her.
Her work with Mary, an
experienced carpenter takes Nina from typing virtual sentences in cyberspace to
building physical lasting objects in the real world. Nina transforms her
attitude, her body and her mind in the process.
An inspiring book, that
shows us that there is more out there than the nine to five grind if we go
looking for it.
