La crítica ha dicho... «Inteligente, útil y extrañamente profundo.» -Entertainment Weekly «Conserva solo lo que ames y lo que te haga feliz en el momento. Se parece a Marie Kondo, pero con un sentido añadido de la transitoriedad y la futilidad de nuestra existencia mortal.» -The New York Post «Sabes que te has hecho mayor cuando su título te atrapa, pero hasta los millennials disfrutarán esta aproximación al orden.» -People Magazine «El libro de Magnusson tiene un título fascinante: terrorífico pero acogedor, como una avalancha vista desde una casa en la montaña [...], un pequeño libro afectuoso y sabio[...]. Me deshago de todos los libros de autoayuda una vez leídos, pero este lo voy a conservar.» -Dwight Garner, The New York Times «Leer su libro escomo tener a una tía sensata y animada contándote las verdades dolorosas que tu madre nunca se ha atrevido.» -Star Tribune «Los suecos tienen la solución: "limpieza para la muerte" [...]. Mientras que la diva japonesa Marie Kondo nos da instrucciones estrictas para conservar solocosas que provoquen alegría, el libro deMagnusson es directo y realista (y con un poco de humor).» -The Washington Post «La nueva moda del orden se llama arte sueco de la limpieza para la muerte [...],Magnusson dice que el proceso no es solo para aquellos que contemplan hacer una visita al otro mundo. Es para todas las edades.» -The Chronicle «Leer las teorías de Magnusson me ha hecho pensar en que las cosas que acumulamos pueden llegar a ser recuerdos para los que dejamos atrás.» -The Brisbane Times «Tiene beneficios que puedes disfrutar perfectamente cuando aún estás vivo [...]. Puede ser una buena manera para que las familias hablen de asuntos delicados, que de otra forma serían difíciles de poner sobre la mesa.» -Time

Synopsis
Llega el Döstadning, el arte de la limpieza para la muerte: un fenómeno sueco para poner en orden nuestra vida antes de pasar a una mejor. Döstädning, o el arte de la limpieza para la muerte, es un fenómeno sueco a través del cual dejar nuestros asuntos en orden antes de pasar a mejor vida. Nos lo presenta Margareta Magnusson, la abuela que todos querríamos tener. Con la claridad de quien ve la vida desde la última parada, explica a jóvenes y mayores cómo ordenar el caos para quedarnos con lo verdaderamente importante. Tanto si se trata de rescatar las reliquias de entre una montaña de trastos, de reducirlo todo a un espacio más pequeño o de establecer unsistema para dejar de perder las llaves, promete ahorrar estrés a quien lo practique y a los que seguirán ahí cuando llegue su hora. Ilustrado por la propia autora, esta es una enseñanza realista, directa y adorablemente excéntrica sobre qué significan de verdad las pertenencias y ser capaz de superar lo efímero. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION *The basis for the wonderfully funny and moving TV series developed by Amy Poehler and Scout Productions* A charming, practical, and unsentimental approach to putting a home in order while reflecting on the tiny joys that make up a long life. In Sweden there is a kind of decluttering called döstädning, dö meaning "death" and städning meaning "cleaning." This surprising and invigorating process of clearing out unnecessary belongings can be undertaken at any age or life stage but should be done sooner than later, before others have to do it for you. In The Gentle Art of Swedish Death Cleaning , artist Margareta Magnusson, with Scandinavian humor and wisdom, instructs readers to embrace minimalism. Her radical and joyous method for putting things in order helps families broach sensitive conversations and makes the process uplifting rather than overwhelming. Margareta suggests which possessions you can easily get rid of (unworn clothes, unwanted presents, more plates than you'd ever use) and which you might want to keep (photographs, love letters, a few of your children's art projects). Digging into her late husband's tool shed, and her own secret drawer of vices, Margareta introduces an element of fun to a potentially daunting task. Along the way readers get a glimpse into her life in Sweden, and become more comfortable with the idea of letting go., Döstädning, o el arte de ordenar antes de morir, es un fenómeno sueco a través del cual dejamos nuestros asuntos en orden antes de pasar a mejor vida. Nos lo presenta Margareta Magnusson, la abuela que todos querríamos tener. Con la claridad de quien ve la vida desde la última parada, explica a jóvenes y mayores cómo ordenar el caos para quedarnos con lo verdaderamente importante. Tanto si se trata de rescatar las reliquias de entre una montaña de trastos, de reducirlo todo a un espacio más pequeño o de establecer un sistema para dejar de perder las llaves, promete ahorrar estrés a quien lo practique y a los que seguirán ahí cuando llegue su hora. Ilustrado por la propia autora, esta es una enseñanza realista, directa y adorablemente excéntrica sobre qué significan de verdad las pertenencias y ser capaz de superar lo efímero.
