ALL THE BEAUTY IN THE WORLD (PB)

When Patrick’s older brother dies at twenty-six, all he wants is to retreat. So, he does. He quits his job and seeks refuge in the most beautiful place he can think of: New York’s Metropolitan Museum of Art. This memoir recounts his time as a museum guard, keeping quiet vigil over some of our greatest treasures and uncovering the Met’s innermost secrets. Gradually, he emerges transformed by heartbreak, community and the power of art to illuminate life in all its pain, pleasure and hope.
