Not as good as the first one...
|
| Review Date: March 29, 2008 |
| Reviewer: A. Yaðmur Toprakli, Ankara TURKIYE |
Be careful if you purchased the first 1000x european architecture book...
This one is completely different from the first one...There are very few drawings about the buildings...I think it is much worhty for interior designers rather than architects...

Product Description |
| When Lakas strolls through his neighborhood one sunny afternoon, the last thing he expects to find is a group of tap-dancing, drum-beating, karaoke-singing new friends. But his friends face a crisis: their home, the Hotel Makibaka, is about to be sold. They must pack their belongings and leave in 30 days. But in a rapidly gentrifying neighborhood, where is there to go? Their rollicking protest against eviction becomes a clarion call to the community, but is it enough to save the Makibaka? Carl Angel’s effervescent paintings vibrate with the rich urban rhythms of city life in this second collaboration with author and poet Anthony D. Robles. |

A pleasing tale based on a real San Francisco event
|
| Review Date: April 11, 2006 |
| Reviewer: Midwest Book Review, Oregon, WI USA |
| Anthony D. Robles' Lakas And The Makibaka Hotel presents an unusual bilingual English-Tagalog story set in the US as a musical with decidedly modern overtones. Lakas' new friends face a crisis when their beloved hotel home is bout to be sold. They have only 30 days to leave - unless they can join forces and neighborhood sentiments to make a different. Carl Angel's lovely and zesty colorful paintings spice a pleasing tale based on a real San Francisco event. |

| Review Date: June 4, 2010 |
| Reviewer: J. Huyett, Brownsville, Texas |
| This book is not only an excellent tool to encourage Tagalog in youngsters growing up in the US, but also has history included in the story. The book covers Filipino customs, myths, vocabulary and a good review of the history of Filipinos in northern California- Manilatown. Lots of good lessons for young children here. Every good Ninong should purchase this book. Maganda. |

Product Description |
Hotel Theory is two books in one: a meditation on the meaning of hotels, and a dime novel (Hotel Women) featuring Lana Turner and Liberace. Typical of Wayne Koestenbaum’s invigoratingly inventive style, the two books one fiction, one nonfiction run concurrently, in twin columns, and the articles a,” an,” and the” never appear. The nonfiction ruminations on hotels are divided into eight dossiers, composed of short takes on the presence of hotels in the author’s dreams as well as in literature, film, and history. Guest stars include everyone from Oscar Wilde to Marilyn Monroe. Hotel Theory gives (divided) voice to an aesthetic of hyperaesthesia, of yearning. It is an oblique manifesto, the place where writing disappears. A new mode of theorizing in fiction, in fragment, through quotation and palimpsest arises in this dazzling work. |

Strange formal synthesis
|
| Review Date: July 8, 2009 |
| Reviewer: eric22, USA |
| Every since "The Queen's Throat," Wayne Kostenbaum has been writing compellingly. You may not "enjoy" reading "Hotel Theory," but you won't be able to stop. It is an experement in form and tone and signification. Bravo WK. |

Product Description |
| Hi-tech, environmental compatibility and good design are no longer a contradiction in terms. In fact, they can complement one another splendidly. Business with nature and the number of "Eco lodges" on offer is huge. Often this type of accommodation is lacking in style. And yet, particularly travel in harmony with nature should be something that appeals to all our senses. The new book "best designed ecological hotels" shows how elegance, architecture and nature can be perfectly combined. It presents outstanding hotel architecture from its best side in the world’s most fascinating locations. From a luxury complex on an isolated island to a clay resort in the desert to a bush lodge with eye contact with wild animals. |
