The story of Richard Neutra's life is, in many ways, the story of modern architecture. He experienced the buoyant struggles of the movement's early years, the heady excesses of its mid-century ascendancy, and the strains of its slow demise. In this study, Thomas Hines explores the efforts of Neutra and his modernist contemporaries to find the forms that would best express the meaning of the twentieth century.
