This is the intimate story of the influences human, political and artistic which shaped the life of Harry Seidler, disciple of Bauhaus architecture. Alice Spigelman explores Seidlers introduction to architecture as a schoolboy in England, the country which betrayed him; his internment in Canada; his Harvard years as a student of Gropius and Marcel Breuer, and finally his years in Australia and the forty year love-hate relationship between him and his critics.
