Summary:
"Can you live your life with just one hundred things? This was the question with which Moritz Grund began an experiment on himself lasting over several years and documented by him in the form of text-fragments. One hundred stand for 100 personal things as the starting point for intelligent observations on products, relationships and meanings in the everyday world. How many objects do we own? How are they kept, transported or disposed of? In a modest yet well-founded way, this work portrays dealings with everyday things." -- Book jacket.
