Sažetak
REVIEWS: “Italo Calvino’s Invisible Cities is a miraculously fascinating work, a postmodern tour-de-force that fires the imagination of the reader and, with each re-reading, discloses new spaces and new ways of seeing. This collection of essays does justice to Calvino’s masterpiece, as its contributors widely explore the novel’s seemingly infinite territories, combining theoretical sophistication with close readings. The result is a fascinating study of both Calvino and the urban imagination that will be welcome by all who find themselves enchanted in cities.” (Robert T. Tally Jr., Professor of English, Texas State University, USA) “Built environment professionals and researchers, social scientists, and literary enthusiasts and scholars will appreciate this excellent interdisciplinary engagement with Calvino’s Invisible Cities, the concreteness and elusiveness of urban life, and the order and disorder of cities.” (Vinit Mukhija, Professor of Urban Planning, UCLA Luskin School of Public Affairs) “A lively, fresh, and wide-ranging encounter with Calvino’s wonderful Invisible Cities. A great read that brings the thinking, writing, and imagination of Calvino’s book into new conversations with urban theory and politics, revealing its power to illuminate urban life and to inform creative writing and pedagogy.” (Colin McFarlane, Professor of Urban Geography, Durham University)
