How are you, and how's the new job?

I'm writing with a quick question. I have a student who's working on representations of the global city in post-9/11 narratives. Can you recommend three or four theoretical texts that deal with the aesthetics and politics of the city? Especially from a gender perspective would be fabulous.

Sorry to trouble you with this! Will I see you at MLA?

All best, Liz

Hi Liz,

how great if I can be of help. I'd refer your student to the following works if you haven't already.

Madhu Dubey, Signs and Cities
Saskia Sassen, The Global City
Doreen Massey, Space, Place, and Gender

Beyond that, these others may be useful too.

Dolores Hayden, The Grand Domestic Revolution
Sharon Zukin, The Culture of Cities or The Landscapes of Power
David Harvey, The Conditions of Postmodernity
Arjun Appadurai, Modernity at Large
Amitava Kumar, Bombay-London-New York
Michel de Certeau, The Practice of Everyday Life
Henri Lefebvre, The Production of Space

I plan on MLA, it'd be wonderful to see you. Hope you're well!

Cheers,
RM
