New Kind of Bleak e-bog

This is what austerity looks like: a nation surviving on the results of what conservatives privately call "e;the progressive nonsense"e; of the Big Society agenda.In a journey that begins and ends in the capital, but takes in Belfast, Aberdeen, Plymouth and Brighton, Hatherley explores modern Britain's urban landscape and finds a short-sighted disarray of empty buildings, malls and glass towers. Yet while A New Kind of Bleak anatomizes "e;broken Britain,"e; Hatherley also looks to a hopeful future and discovers fragments of what it might look like.Illustrated by Laura Oldfield Ford, author and artist of Savage Messiah.
