Testimony of Architecture
Wars Told Through StoneBy Chris A. Piazza | Antherra™
Length1h 21m
About this audiobook
You visit a monument to honor the fallen, but notice it celebrates only leaders on horseback, erasing the masses who died. Testimony of Architecture asks where else you overlook whose story a structure is telling—and whose it buries. Wars reshape what stone remembers.
