Hardcover. NY, Museum of Modern Art, 1st, 1966, Book: Very Good, Dust Jacket: Good, Hardcover in a lightly soiled, edgeworn dust jacket with $4.95 on flap, 135 pages. Translated into 16 languages, this remarkable book has become an essential document of architectural literature. A "gentle manifesto for a nonstraightforward architecture," Venturi's Complexity and Contradiction in Architecture expresses in the most compelling and original terms the postmodern rebellion against the purism of modernism. Three hundred and fifty architectural illustrations serve as historical comparisons and illuminate the author's ideas on creating and experiencing architecture. Complexity and Contradiction in Architecture was the winner of the Classic Book Award at the AIA's Seventh Annual International Architecture Book Awards. Robert Charles Venturi Jr. (June 25, 1925-September 18, 2018) was an American architect, founding principal of the firm Venturi, Scott Brown and Associates. Together with his wife and partner, Denise Scott Brown, he helped shape the way that architects, planners and students experience and think about architecture and the built environment. Foreword by Arthur Drexler. Introduction by Vincent Scully. No markings.

Empty Without You The Intimate Letters of Eleanor Roosevelt and Lorena Hickok
by: Streitmatter, Rodger (Ed.)

Softcover. NY, Da Capo Press, reprint, 2000, Book: Very Good, Dust Jacket: None, Softcover, 307 pages, b&w illustrations. In 1978, more than 2,500 letters written over a 30 year friendship between First Lady Eleanor Roosevelt and reporter Lorena Hickok were discovered by archivists. The find created a controversy over the nature of the women's relationship. Streitmatter transcribed and annotated more than 300 of these letters, published here for the first time, and placed them within the context of these two women's extraordinary lives. Roosevelt is surprisingly sarcastic and funny, tender and vulnerable, and even, at times, judgmental and petty. Clean copy.
