Some books start at point A, take you by the hand, and carefully walk you to point B, and on and on.This is not one of those books. This book is about mood, and how it works in and with us as complicated, imperfectly selfknowing beings existing in a world that impinges and infringes on us, but also regularly suffuses us with beauty and joy and wonder. You dont write that book as a linear progressionyou write it as a living, breathing, richly associative, and, crucially, active, investigation. Or at least you do if youre as smart and inventive as Mary Cappello.What is a mood? How do we think about and understand and describe moods and their endless shadings? What do they do to and for us, and how can we actively generate or alter them? These are all questions Cappello takes up as she explores mood in all its manifestations: we travel with her from the childhood tables of arts and crafts to mood rooms and reading rooms, forgotten natural history museums and 3D ViewMaster fairytale tableaux; from the shifting palette of clouds and weather to the music that defines us and the voices that carry us. The result is a book as brilliantly unclassifiable as mood itself, blue and green and bright and beautiful, funny and sympathetic, as powerfully investigative as it is richly contemplative.Im one of those people who mistrusts a really good mood, Cappello writes early on. If that made you nod in recognition, well, maybe youre one of Mary Cappellos people; you owe it to yourself to crack Life Breaks In and see for sure.
