Description
Title Description - Behind the bright safety-orange covers of this book you will find hand-drawn maps of LA made by strangers approached by the author at the Los Angeles Airport (LAX). Everyone has his or her own idea of what LA is, and this book collects the grid, the gridlock, the neighborhoods, freeways, palmtrees, and surfers that populate the imagination of residents and visitors alike. The title comes from a comment scribbled on one of the maps. 29 June 2009 (printedmatter.org).
