Reviews

'By relying on a wide range of resources such as classical texts, poems, novels, paintings and photos, Condello convincingly argues for a continuum of luxury and shows that luxury continues to be creative in architecture ...the book is above all a very inspiring read which should stimulate further and more critical debates.' LSE Review of Books
