Book Description
We all need a safe place to balance our private and work lives. Such a refuge is increasingly rare, however, due to the demands of modern life. Angela Neustatter uncovers eleven ways in which people have created a shelter for their hearts in very different circumstances. Her investigation ranges from her own family to tower-blocks in London and Manchester; from Australia and Texas to an eco-village in Wales.
