The Autobiography of an Apartment House
This book's Introduction asks, "If buildings could talk, what would they say? If they could listen, see, remember-above all if they could speak-what would we hear from them?" Through twenty photographs of people who live, or who once lived, in it, a 90-year-old apartment building "narrates" its own history. Written pieces accompanying each portrait help explore the intertwining of the lives of these people-some young and just starting out, others well established with families and children, still others in their later years. The book's Introduction tells the stories of a number of others for whom, by merit of their departures in one way or another, it was not possible to take portraits.
