Volume #4: Break Through

November 2005
The isolation of the self; the sacrosanct object; the solitude of 'outstanding' architecture. Are these signs of a moribund culture? If so, where did our vitality go? Can we find it in other domains? Can we re-animate, re-infuse ourselves with energy? Read how reality seeps through our unassailable myths and penetrates our splendid isolation.
