The Book of Thanks
Dutch title: "Dankboek"
In this Dutch-only book, De Correspondent co-founder Ernst-Jan Pfauth shares his conclusions after two years of reading self-help literature. In short, when you keep aiming for more and better, you forget to be thankful for what you already have.
This gratitude journal contains tips for living a more satisfied life – and for keeping up the habit in our competitive society. As a burnout pandemic sweeps the globe, it’s a helping hand that’s sorely needed.
On the design of The Book of Thanks
We based The Book of Thanks' design on a diary, choosing to treat it as a utilitarian object. For example, removing the dust jacket makes the book easy to carry discreetly.
We also clearly distinguished the book’s written content from the sections with space for the reader’s own writing by using two colours of paper: aqua and white. The red bookmark lets the reader keep track of his or her progress, while the hardcover linen cover is robust enough for daily use and portability.
