He tells the stories of its development through table-books and diaries, common-placing and journaling, and the lives of those who relied upon from Darwin hatching the idea of evolution to Clara Nguyen creating a restaurant business from family recipe books. Along the way we meet sailors and fishermen, musicians and engineers, travellers and politicians. We hear how Bruce Chatwin inspired Maria Segrebondi to create the Moleskine, how Agatha Christie plotted a hundred murders and Bob Dylan drafted Blood on the Tracks, how bullet-journaling can combat ADHD and patient diaries ease the traumas of reawakening from a coma.There is a bigger issue, too. In this age of AI and digital overload, a blank notebook and the act of moving a pen across paper can change the way we think. |

The notebook has shaped our thoughts for eight hundred years. In medieval Italy, the blank ledger revolutionised international trade and enabled the intellectual and artistic advances of the Renaissance. At sea, the invention of the logbook expanded horizons. Artists from Leonardo da Vinci to Frida Kahlo, scientists from Isaac Newton to Marie Curie, writers from Chaucer to Henry James: all created work forged in their notebooks. In this highly original history, Roland Allen reveals the notebook’s surprising and profound influence. We hear how Bruce Chatwin inspired Maria Sebregondi to create the Moleskine, how Agatha Christie plotted a hundred murders and Bob Dylan drafted Blood on the Tracks. He describes how bullet journaling can be used to combat ADHD and, movingly, how diaries kept by nurses can ease the trauma of reawakening from a coma. This powerful connection with our notebooks matters. In an age of AI and digital overload, the simple act of moving a pen across a blank page can boost our creativity and mood - and continues to transform our ideas. |
