Horizontal Vertigo

In "Horizontal Vertigo," Juan Villoro embarks on a vivid exploration of Mexico City, the largest Spanish-speaking metropolis, capturing its dynamic essence as he navigates the urban landscape without a set itinerary. Through a keen observational lens, he examines the city's rich cultural, political, and social history, spanning from indigenous times to the present. Organized around themes like “Living in the City” and “City Characters,” Villoro’s work offers a unique and thoughtful meditation on the spirit of place that defines this vibrant city.
