In The Gentle Art of Swedish Death Cleaning, artist Margareta Magnusson, with Scandinavian humor and wisdom, instructs listeners to embrace minimalism.

The virtual voice was decent, but often missed the cadence of language saying Swedish Death...Cleaning. the pause was a little jarring at first. Add to it the trite content and it felt like a waste of time.
