In her first book MUCH DEPENDS ON DINNER, Margaret Visser elegantly explores the elements of a simple meal and delves into its historical, political and biological meanings. With THE GEOMETRY OF LOVE, she turns to the meaning and memory of a building - starting with the eighth-century church of St Agnes in Rome. Built over the grave of a girl, whose rape and murder have never been forgotten, this sanctified building is an extraordinary palimpsest with layers of stories - Visser unpicks the histories and fills them with contemporary resonance.
