Very glad after a conversation between my Architecture and Urban Culture students at Coimbra and the brilliant Laurent Maffre, author of Demain Demain, a BD about a squatter settlement in 1960s Paris.

Today on the blog, read a Q&A with @lendavis.bsky.social about his new book "Poor Things," which considers the literature of poverty. dukeupress.wordpress...
Cover of Poor Things: How Those with Money Depict Those without It by Lennard J. Davis. Cover features a halftone illustration of an adult hand dropping a coin into the outstretched palm of a child. A color filter overlays the image; most of the image is blue-tone, but the hands are encircled in bright red. The text “Poor Things” is in white chunky lettering.
