| Summary: | "Piecing Together Los Angeles: An Esther McCoy Reader is the first collection of her writing. From fiction for The New Yorker to seminal essays on new architectural forms, the arc of her work sparkles with a passion for the modern. This essential volume includes out-of-print essays, articles, and short stories, as well as hitherto unpublished lectures, correspondence, and memoirs that together illuminate the breadth and complexity of McCoy's groundbreaking work. An introductory essay by writer and anthology editor Susan Morgan provides a lucid conceptual framework for understanding the development and diversity of McCoy's writing and the region that inspired it."--Back cover. |
