The Crowd, The Critic And The Muse: A Book For Creators by Michael Gungor

4.0

While I don't consider myself much of a creator or artist, this book, written by a musician/songwriter/writer that I respect, had me curious enough to get the audiobook with my Audible membership, and I definitely don't regret it. The production of the audiobook was phenomenal--read by the author, he added humor and anecdote that would have been lost in the printed word alone. Additionally, the audiobook was scored with Gungor instrumentals, which also added depth to the words. The book is more of a collection of essays, anecdotes, and musings, that combine philosophy, theology, and sociology, and make for a very interesting read. While I was listening, my husband asked me, "So what is this book actually about?" That is tough to actually pin down, but I think the book is about encouragement to create--why we create, and why we must not stop creating.
