![]() But during this time, I also learned of-and had accumulated-other Rybcynski titles that interested me but how could I begin those when I hadn't finished the first one? But now, having read-and finished "Home"-I am ready for more Rybczynski. Rather, I oddly enjoyed flirting with Witold and his cozy book on the history of "home" over the years. My failure to complete the book had nothing to do with the quality of the book itself. I started "early" and finished before leaving. But this time, I did not wait for my vacation to begin. So what promoted my newfound commitment toward completion? Another planned vacation and another opportunity to read. ![]() The writing style is clear and interesting, and the author's commentaries and conclusions are insightful and rewarding. ![]() And I am so glad I finally finished because I loved it! Rybczynski met my expectations, and the Audible narrator-Wanda MacCaddon-exceeded them. ![]() But vacations ended, and I shelved the book each time-until now. I have started reading this book several times on several vacations. In this illuminating book, Witold Rybczynski walks us through five centuries of homes both great and small, from the smoke-filled manor halls of the Middle. ![]()
