Críticas

Louis Sullivan was a master thinker and master teacher whose lessons have stood - both physically and figuratively - the test of time.

The range of his writings are prolific: poetry, scholarship, culture, democracy, knowledge, and the art of expression. It is a museum of thought within a single book.

One of the most profound books I have ever read.

I have immense admiration for Sullivan as an architect, as a visionary, and as a free spirit. Sadly, almost none of these come across in this memoir from late in his life. The thought is unfocussed and the prose is mincing and unconvincing. Too bad
