Judith Levine Can you imagine going a full year without buying any "stuff?" Author and journalist Judith Levine and her partner, Paul, took on the challenge of a self-imposed moratorium on consumption, closing their wallets to everything but the bare necessities—no dinners out, no new shoes, no morning latte—for a year. Levine’s findings about herself, her relationships and the American consumer mentality were surprising and often humorous.
