Patrick Bringley's "All the Beauty in the World" is a contemplative narrative of his time as a guard at the Metropolitan Museum of Art. Bringley's journey begins with his awe of the museum's grandeur and the mentorship of Aada, a Finnish guard who emphasizes the importance of their role in protecting the art and visitors. He learns about the museum's operations and the historical and cultural significance of the artworks, such as a Duccio painting valued at $45 million. Bringley's reflections are interwoven with personal stories, including his mother's influence on his love for art, his father's musical passion, and his brother Tom's illness and death, which profoundly affected him and led him to seek solace at the Met.
