This collection of essays and poems explores the nature of trifles, those seemingly insignificant things that can have a profound impact on our lives. McNeill examines the role of trifles in our personal relationships, our work, and our overall happiness. He argues that trifles are not to be dismissed, but rather savored and appreciated.
