A searching, timely account of the condition of contemporary Europe, told through the landscapes of its cities.
Owen Hatherley writes regularly on aesthetics and politics for the Architectural Review, The Calvert Journal, Dezeen, the Guardian, Jacobin and the London Review of Books. He is the author of several books, most recently Landscapes of Communism, The Ministry of Nostalgia and The Chaplin Machine.
A scathing, lively and timely look at the "European city", from one
of our most provocative voices on culture and architecture
today
*Owen Jones*
The best book I've read on Europe, blending history, architecture
and contemporary politics and written in Owen Hatherley's trademark
mixture of scepticism, erudition and humanity. He is a writer of
lasting merit who will be read fifty years from now.
*Anna Minton*
The latest heir to Ruskin.
