520    A graceful, inspired memoir about building a home from 
       scratch and discovering a true sense of self-in just 
       eighty-four square feet-by Dee Williams, a pioneer in 
       sustainable living and the proud owner of a very tiny 
       house. After a heart condition felled Dee Williams in the 
       grocery store ten years ago, she initially threw herself 
       headfirst back into her old life, which included a pricey 
       three-bedroom house, overtime hours to cover homeowner 
       bills, and a general lack of free time. In the midst of 
       contemplating her future, a new sense of clarity took 
       hold. What was all this stuff for? Mortgage payments and 
       the time-suck of homeownership felt like a waste, and no 
       one has the money or desire to pack it in and live on an 
       island without family, friends, or health insurance. 
       Discovering the sustainability movement and building her 
       own house was just the beginning of building a new life. 
       Williams can now list everything she owns on one sheet of 
       paper, her monthly bills amount to about eight dollars, 
       and it takes her ten minutes to clean the entire house. 
       It's allowed her to slow down, scale back, spend more time
       with family and friends-and given her the freedom to head 
       out for adventure, or watch the clouds and sunset while 
       drinking a beer on her (yes, tiny) front porch. Without 
       escaping to the wilds or going off the grid, Williams 
       achieved a happy balance of the normal and the radical and
       created a new model for simple, practical living. Part how
       -to and part why-to, The Big Tiny is not just a memoir of 
       that "aha" moment posttrauma but an utterly seductive 
       meditation on what it means to build the good life and the
       right life, every day.
