Beguiling.

Van den Broeck spent three years visiting 13 different 'sites of failure'.

Nearly half the stories Van den Broeck uncovers similarly dissolve away. The death in question happened later, or as a consequence of bereavement, or for reasons that cannot truly be pieced together (little is said here about mental ill-health or early life adversity).

A lively, deeply engrossing exploration into the nature of architectural creation.

Gorgeous and roving.
