Living With Buildings is a remarkable book that explores the impact of buildings on our lives, from isolation to healing, and investigates the spaces we inhabit.

Publisher: Profile Books Ltd
A remarkable book, surprisingly gripping and often deeply moving, simultaneously disorienting and illuminating. - Robert Macfarlane
We shape ourselves, and are shaped in return, by the walls that contain us. Buildings affect how we sleep, work, socialize, and even breathe. They can isolate and endanger us, but they can also heal us. We project our hopes and fears onto buildings, while they absorb our histories.
In Living With Buildings, Iain Sinclair embarks on a series of expeditions - through London, Marseille, Mexico, and the Outer Hebrides. A father and his daughter, who has a rare syndrome, visit the estate where they once lived. Developers clink champagne glasses as residents are decanted from their homes. A box sculpted from whalebone, thought to contain healing properties, is returned to its origins with unexpected consequences.
Part investigation, part travelogue, Living With Buildings brings the spaces we inhabit to life as never before.
