Object Lessons is a series of short, beautifully designed books
about the hidden lives of ordinary things. We think we know the
trench coat, but where does it come from and where will it take us?
From its origins in the trenches of WW1, this military outerwear
came to project the inner-being of detectives, writers, reporters,
rebels, artists and intellectuals. The coat outfitted imaginative
leaps into the unknown. Trench Coat tells the story of seductive
entanglements with technology, time, law, politics, trust and
trespass. Readers follow the rise of a sartorial archetype through
media, design, literature, cinema and fashion. Today, as a staple
in stories of future life-worlds, the trench coat warns of
disturbances to come. Object Lessons is published in partnership
with an essay series in The Atlantic.
