Review # 1 was written on 2011-11-17 00:00:00 Lonny Parr Not quite what you'd expect. This isn't a history of interior decor as much as it is a meditation on the nature of "home" expressed through decor. The introductory essay by Mario Praz is graceful and entrancing and the heart of the book. His thoughts on collectors and the idea of change in what passes for "domestic" are superb. Well worth reading. |
Review # 2 was written on 2013-01-09 00:00:00 Mike Hopkins I hate it when I pick up a book cold, read a few passages that are interesting, buy it, and find I've ready the only interesting parts. Kind of like a self-selected movie trailer. And it really isn't about the Thames after the first 1/3. Of course, the interesting parts are when he forgets about the Thames (he goes on at great length about the effects of the Dissolution). |
