The much-anticipated follow-up to the acclaimed and resoundingly fascinating Daily Rituals.Filled with the innovative, inspiring and wonderfully prolific accounts of some of the world`s best female creators, Daily Rituals: Women at Work is the powerful and championing sequel to Mason Currey`s first book, Daily Rituals. Barbara Hepworth sculpted outdoors and Janet Frame wore earmuffs as she worked to block out noise.
