Breaking Ground: Adventures in Life and Architecture by Daniel Libeskind

Started: 6/15/05
Finished: 6/20/05

I had the opportunity to see Libeskind speak last week, and at the talk they gave out copies of his biography. I didn't even realize he had written a book. The talk was great. Oddly, there were a lot of similarities between his talk and Steve Jobs' at commencement last week. I started reading the book on the way home on the train, and haven't put it down since. Libeskind has led an amazing life, and his outlook on architecture is fascinating. Reading this book will make you change the way you think about buildings (and as that daughter of an architect, this is saying a lot).
