Anotácia knihy

Nina MacLaughlin spent her twenties sitting at a desk, staring at a screen, dragging and clicking. One day she saw an ad on Craigslist Carpenter s Assistant sought: women strongly encouraged to apply and saw her way out. With a degree in classics, she couldn t tell a Phillips-head screwdriver from a flat-head . . . but she got the job. Hammer Head is her inspiring story of learning the trade, a book for anyone who has ever daydreamed of changing tracks. Mixing wisdom from Ovid and Mary Oliver with practical descriptions of tools and varieties of wood, MacLaughlin describes the joys and frustrations of making things by hand, the strangeness of working as a woman in an occupation that is 99 percent male, and how carpentry changes the way one sees the world. Like Matthew Crawford s Shop Class as Soulcraft, this is a warm and surprising book about finding meaning in work and life."
