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.
