En savoir plus sur le livre
"1000 Extra, Ordinary Objects" explores a diverse range of items across categories such as food, fashion, animals, body, soul, and leisure, each accompanied by a color photograph and descriptive text. The book presents intriguing insights into these objects, often revealing surprising truths. For instance, a photograph of a bottle of strawberry-flavored drink critiques its marketing as a healthy alternative, exposing it as primarily sugar and additives. Other entries include unconventional uses of everyday items, such as liquid latex that dries on the skin and a potato used to induce swelling for temporary sick leave. The Prayer Sprayer house deodorant is humorously noted to work best when followed by a prayer. This collection invites readers to reconsider the ordinary, shedding light on the unexpected narratives behind common objects.
