Description
In The City and the World Gregor Hens considers the phenomenon of the contemporary city and our place within it. Hens travels the world – from Berlin to Las Vegas to Shenzen, from Cologne to Santiago de Chile to Paris – reading, walking and swimming, asking how we perceive the city and how it may perceive us. Threading memoir and personal reflections with travelogue, philosophy, photography and references from a wide variety of writers and thinkers, The City and the World is a captivating, illuminating and expansive journey into the heart of the modern city.
