Critics Review
“With gusto, an exuberant architect considers his life and work….Revealing, accessible, and luscious.” – Kirkus
“Bold, inspiring and emotional (much like Libeskind’s angular buildings)—a page turner of career highlights, inside knowledge, geometric designs, and personal stories (some heart breaking, all riveting). Libeskind candidly discusses his poignant works through entertaining personal snapshots—a zoom lens focused on his influences (music, poetry, liberal arts, Greek mythology and pop culture included). He says every project must have that “Eureka moment” from which creativity is conceived. —Forbes
