The Philosopher's Style Color Cover by Beatrix Ost
“The Philosopher’s Style” presents 80 new and unpublished short stories and interviews that Beatrix has composed over the years. The short stories are philosophical and fantastical, nostalgic and sharp. The interview subjects represent the range of humanity that is the intrepid and empathetic web that Beatrix spins. As in life, Beatrix provides a cosmic space for others to share themselves. The prose of “The Philosopher’s Style” was given room to evolve into “textual painting”: creating a synesthetic quality for the reader. The images of the book span decades and include her archival photos, sketches, paintings, sculptures, and a new photo shoot by Ari Seth Cohen from Advanced Style. This book is both a lifetime in the making and just another adventure from one of the most unique women to roam amongst us. It is truly a gift.

Beatrix assumes the role of nomadic scholar and reluctant mystic. She holds Space in such abundance that she has plenty to give. And she does, often and freely. One can accept it or not. One can see it or not. This gift arrives in laughter, conversation, silence—and advice that is never unsolicited. Creation is best served without exposition.
