Download A Place of My Own: The Architecture of Daydreams AudioBook Free
Michael Pollan's unparalleled ability to draw lines of interconnection between our everyday experiences - whether eating, gardening, or building - and the natural world has been the foundation for the favorite success of his many works of nonfiction, including the genre-defining best retailers The Botany of Desire, The Omnivore's Dilemma, and In Security of Food. With this up to date model of his prior book, A Host to My Own, listeners can revisit the motivated, intelligent, and frequently hilarious story of Pollan's realization of a room of his own-a small, wooden hut, his "shelter for daydreams" - built with his admittedly unhandy hands. Inspired by both Thoreau and Mr. Blandings, A Host to My Own not only works to mention the history and meaning of most individual building, it also marks the connections between our bodies, our heads, and the natural world.
