Writing the City into Being – Essays on Johannesburg 1998-2008 Lindsay Bremner (Fourthwall Books, 2010)
Writing the City into Being – Essays on Johannesburg 1998-2008 Lindsay Bremner (Fourthwall Books, 2010) This scholarly work is a collection of essays on Johannesburg written by Bremner, once the head of architecture at Wits University but now a visiting professor of architecture at Temple University, Philadelphia, in the US. With the essays written over a 10-year period, the book consists of three parts: her 2008 doctoral proposal, a photographic essay and a collection of essays written between 1998 and 2008. She examines the emerging post-apartheid city, listening to it and "engaging with it and writing it, as a way of thinking architecturally". This paperback is an academic book, not a casual read.
