Description
This delectable book collects the rococo prose of Lisa Robertson. There are essays many originally published as catalogue texts by art galleries on the syntax of the suburban home, Vancouver fountains, Value Village, the joy of synthetics, scaffolding and the persistence of the Himalayan blackberry. It makes for one of the most intriguing books youll ever read.
