In the last years, Smiljan Radic has become in one of the most renowned architects in the world, mainly due to his work’s eccentricity, his “significative contribution to architecture as an art” as recognized by the Arnold W. Brunner of the American Institute of Architects in 2018. Rough Work, written mainly by Radic himself, is an essential compilation of his work. Smiljan shares his thoughts, inspirations, heroes, and a selection of 24 key works that allows us to understand the architect’s trajectory. "In it, you will find a stolen title and other tales, together with my writing, frustrated projects, drawings and scribbles, academic excercises, happy buildings in use, others that are gone now, and many engineering plans. It is all part of what I have been able to build through 2015—a past that today takes a natural and expectant position in my present work, as if it were REMEMBERING A FORGETTING."—Smiljan Radic.

With a rhythmic irregularity that breaks its own voice, this work contains a deceptive but measured movement, as if it were the footwork of a boxer, which gradually envelops the reader. There is a singular back-and-forth in this collection of poems: scenarios described through sensations, through immaterial elements; and sensations exposed through physical ingredients. There is bebop. Words are left behind. And then they come back on their own, lashing out. It is not surprising, then, that inside this book there is a reference to Thelonious Monk, an expansive creator who took harmony to its ultimate consequences. As the author himself puts it, this book is a horse on the prairie.
Vitali’s Ireland offers a unique perspective on 21st century Irish cultural identity, delivered in a style rich with his typical sardonic wit. Ukrainian-born Vitali Vitaliev, an award-winning travel writer and journalist, uses his outsider’s perspective to recount his Irish adventures. A renowned cultural observer, he muses on the nation’s quirks and stereotypes, whilst his reference to mid-19th century guide books provides an insightful historical comparison. The result is an affectionate if slightly perplexed portrait of a nation in transition.
