"This book is a distillation of how our imaginations are formed and extended along the lines of the spaces we inhabit. I loved the passage on shelters, the way they keep us warm and safe and encourage imaginative growth. Bachelard notes that we are warm and toasty in our homes because it's cold outside. What a marvelous mundane epiphany. You enjoy the warmth because you know it's cold! He talks about resonance, reverberations, and all the sorts of ways nooks and crannies, locks, shells(home for turtles and snails), attics, and cottages and castles and all these aspects of our spaces give us imaginative relief. Wow."
"If you ever wanted a complex explanation on phenomenology then this is the book for you. It looks at the heart of the semantic whether it be in language or art. This book has a secret in every sentence and divulges the truth slowly but satisfactorily."
"One of my favourite books. It made me explore my inner connection with the physical world. I have read and re-read this book many times. A must read."
