| Summary: | The guide to the 13 works and seven 'walks' of this little book (4 1/8"x5 7/8") is the 'Office for Soft Architecture'--the alter ego of Canadian poet Robertson, author of 'Debbie: An Epic and The Weather.' Seeking 'the place in the polis of the sour heat and the pulse beneath our coats, the specific entry of our exhalations and words into the atmosphere,' Robertson probes various fabrics, cities, rooms, people, histories and 'the reaching middle,' showing how life, in the way it uses space and time, is 'soft architecture.' |
