Description: Decorating a Room of Ones Own by Susan Harlan Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Hardcover Condition Brand New Description Wickedly funny interviews with fictional literary characters about their homes and dwellings using the language of contemporary interior design reportage Publisher Description What would Little Women be without the charms of the March familys cozy New England home? Or Wuthering Heights without the ghost-infested Wuthering Heights? Getting lost in the setting of a good book can be half the pleasure of reading, and Decorating a Room of Ones Own brings literary backdrops to the foreground in this wryly affectionate satire of interior design reporting. English professor and humorist Susan Harlan spoofs decorating culture by reimagining its subject as famous fictional homes and "interviews" the residents who reveal their true tastes: Lady Macbeths favorite room in the castle, or the design inspiration behind Jay Gatsbys McMansion of unfulfilled dreams. Featuring 30 entries of notable dwellings, sidebars such as "Setting Up an Ideal Governesss Room," and four-color spot illustrations throughout, Decorating a Room of Ones Own is the ideal book for readers who appreciate fine literature and a good end table. Author Biography Susan Harlan is an associate professor of English literature at Wake Forest University in Winston-Salem, North Carolina, and a writer whose work has appeared in the Guardian US, the Toast, Roads & Kingdoms, McSweeneys Internet Tendency, Literary Hub, Jezebel, Curbed, the Hairpin, the Establishment, the Common, and the Awl.
