Sommario/riassunto

Using innovative theoretical concepts, this book develops a new approach to looking at dwelling and how we use it. Combining philosophical analysis and literary and film criticism, it puts forward an innovative and insightful new approach to looking at housing and explores issues of exclusion, isolation, anxiety, privacy and the relations between parent and child.
