Format:Paperback
This is a thin book packed full of great 50s interiors photos to look at slowly and a text that can be read in snatches or in chapters. Written by a curator at the Victoria and Albert Museum it is eminently readable in both style and content. This is a very thin book, but a very thin book to get quite excited about . . . if you are in love with the 1950s . . .
