Tóm tắt

Our house is our corner of the world (G. Bachelard) Houses and homes prove complex and powerful concepts, invoking places, persons, emotions, and fantasies. This book, with photographs from Maurice Weiss, demonstrates how the relations between houses, work, and the self have transformed dramatically and unpredictably under conditions of capitalim and modernity.
