Ebook: The Material City: Bodies, Minds, and the In-Between

Thoughtful and lively writing about themes of fate, desire, comedy, and mortality in everyday city life.

Redirecting examinations of the culture of the city away from its customs, art, and amenities to focus on the mental life of modern society, The Material City translates contested views of everyday life and its management into a deeper reflection on urbanity as a system of desire.
