It is a possible architecture, an analogous architecture, an architecture of anarchy, which haunts in the form of monsters that are humans and machines and cities all at once; or takes the form of explosions, veils, queer, playful spaces, or visions from artwork and video games. In \u003ci\u003eThe Monster Leviathan\u003c\/i\u003e, Aaron Betsky traces anarchitecture through texts, design, and art of the twentieth and early twenty-first century, and suggests that these ephemeral evocations are concrete proposals in and of themselves. Neither working models nor suggestions for new forms, they are scenes just believable enough to convince us they exist, or just fantastical enough to open our eyes.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eThe Monster Leviathan\u003c\/i\u003e gives students and lovers","brand":"MIT Press Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48864307249495,"sku":"9780262546331","price":34.85,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9780262546331.jpg?v=1722271327","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/the-monster-leviathan-9780262546331","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
