William Davies King, on the other hand, has devoted decades to collecting nothing-and a lot of it. With Collections of Nothing, he takes a hard look at this habitual hoarding to see what truths it can reveal about the impulse to accumulate. Part memoir, part reflection on the mania of acquisition, Collections of Nothing begins with the stamp collection that King was given as a boy. 606 $aCollectors and collecting$zUnited States$vBiography 606 $aCollectors and collecting$zUnited States 606 $aCollectors and collecting$xPsychological aspects 606 $aCollectors and collecting$vMiscellanea 610 $acollecting, collectors, hoarding, accumulation, consumption, material culture, memoir, biography, autobiography, acquisition, stamps, psychology, minimalism, detritus, miscellanea, loneliness, materialism, collectibles, curating, freud, hobby, obsession, cereal boxes, drawings, dictionaries, ephemera, objects, worth, value, useless, obsolescence, nonfiction. 615 0$aCollectors and collecting 615 0$aCollectors and collecting 615 0$aCollectors and collecting$xPsychological aspects. 615 0$aCollectors and collecting 676 $a790.1/32 700 $aKing$b W.
