House as a Mirror of Self presents an unprecedented examination of
our relationship to where we live, interwoven with compelling
personal stories of the search for a place for the soul. Marcus
takes us on a reverie of the special places of childhood--the forts
we made and secret hiding places we had--to growing up and
expressing ourselves in the homes of adulthood. She explores how
the self-image is reflected in our homes; power struggles in making
a home together with a partner; territory, control, and privacy at
home; self-image and location; disruptions in the boding with home;
and beyond the "house as ego" to the call of the soul.
As our culture is swept up in home improvement to the extent of
having an entire TV network devoted to it, this book is essential
for understanding why the surroundings that we call home make us
feel the way we do. With this information we can embark on home
improvement that truly makes room for our soul.
