Resumen
Alive with insight, delight and Dyers characteristic irreverence, this book offers a guide around the cultural maze, mapping a route through the worlds of literature, art, photography, music. Across ten years worth of essays, Working the Room spans the photography of Martin Parr and the paintings of Turner, the writing of Scott Fitzgerald and the criticism of Susan Sontag, and includes extensive personal pieces - On Being an Only Child, Sacked and Readers Block among many others. Dyers breadth of vision and generosity of spirit combine to form a manual for ways of being in - and seeing - the world today.
