Understories by Horvath, Tim instant download

256 p. ; 19 cm, \"What if there were a city that consisted only of restaurants? What if Paul Gauguin had gone to Greenland instead of Tahiti? What if there were a field called Umbrology, the study of shadows, where physicists and shadow puppeteers worked side by side? Full of speculative daring though firmly anchored in the tradition of realism, Tim Horvath's stories explore all of this and more--blending the everyday and wondrous to contend with age-old themes of loss, identity, imagination, and the search for human connection\"--BAck cover, The Lobby -- Urban planning : case study number one -- Circulation -- Urban planning : case study number two -- The understory -- Urban planning : case study number three -- The discipline of shadows -- Urban planning : case study number four -- Planetarium -- The gendarmes -- A box of one's own -- Internodium -- Urban planning : case study number five -- Runaroundandscreamalot! -- Urban planning : case study number six -- Pocket -- Altered native -- Urban planning : case study number seven -- The conversations -- Tilkez -- Urban planning : case study number eight
