Nearest Thing to Heaven: The Empire State Building and American Dreams - Icons of America
Mark Kingwell
The Empire State Building literally cannot be seen in its totality, from any perspective. This book encourages us to look beneath the strong physical presence of the building, to become aware of its evolving layers of meaning, and to see how the building lives within a unique imaginative space in the landscape of the American consciousness.
