Occasional Work and Seven Walks from the Office for Soft Architecture

Author: Lisa Robertson

Publisher: Coach House Books (2011)

This delectable book collects the rococo prose of Lisa Robertson. These 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 you’ll ever read.
