How to write a building

Abstract

The following pages contain the imagination for a library to be built in the manner of a sestina. The question that titles the book and the work within has preoccupied me for a while and at this moment, it would be an error to say that a conclusion has been reached; ultimately, solutions only propel echoes, foretelling of the blind fold before our eyes, ignorance. There is only a hope that the images here are to you, the reader, as crystalline as they were to me, the dreamer.
