Can paint drying really be dramatic?

Not really-but that won't stop us from trying. This audiobook takes the concept of watching paint dry and stretches it into a soothing exploration of the art world's quirkiest and most unexpected stories. If you're looking for something calming yet mildly intriguing, this is the audiobook for you.

Inside, you'll uncover:

  • How the Mona Lisa vanished from the Louvre in 1911, sending the art world into chaos (and how it's mostly just sitting there now).
  • The wild tale of Han van Meegeren, the forger who fooled the Nazis and proved that fake Vermeers were oddly profitable.
  • Hidden masterpieces discovered beneath famous paintings (spoiler: artists reused canvases a lot).
  • The botched restoration that gave the world “Monkey Christ” and put a sleepy Spanish town on the map.
  • The Knoedler Gallery scandal, where $80 million in forgeries proved that even the art elite can't spot a fake.

Each story is presented with just enough intrigue to keep you engaged-and just enough monotony to help you drift off.

Perfectly mundane yet unexpectedly captivating, Boring Stories to Help You Sleep: The Unexpected Drama of Paint Drying will guide you to sleep one brushstroke at a time.

Get your copy now, and let the calm wash over you-because no one has ever stayed awake thinking about drying paint. Probably.
