I’m not sure what one really expects when they start reading a book about car parks.
From the blurb, I was thinking this would mainly be like a book of nature rating but about a forgotten, industrial space.
The first part of the book (which makes up the first half) lays the ground work of visiting a lot of car parks, but the second and third parts are where something of a conclusion is reached, linking these spaces to the current socio-economic and political climate, which is more what I was expecting from the book overall.
