The Poetics of Space is a book that brings us into the world of dreams, the unconscious, the imagination, and we inhabit these most intimate of places, alone. This is a book of solitude, and to have a conversation while inside this book is to share something much deeper than the content of the words. It is to reach out across layers and layers of space, physical and abstract, and touch another. It is in this kind of touching that our own being is sent back to us; we are receive ourselves slightly changed by such encounters.

The following is a conversation of three voices: Kaitlin, who lives in an old house in Hanoi; Christophe who lives in a tall house in Saigon; and Gaston Bachelard, who lived and wrote in the houses of human consciousness in 20th century France. The encounter took place through electronic mails during the mouth of January 2014.
