Synopsis

What is a city? Through essays, poems, memoir, photographs and fiction, an array of today s leading writers, thinkers and artists join together to give their perspective. Focussing on the two former industrial heartlands of Glasgow and Pittsburgh, Second Lives is a collection of views, real and imagined, on what makes up a city in the 21st century, and how cities might be reborn. In order to get to know any place, you need to spend time in its neighbourhoods, each of which has its own character and history. You need to talk to its people. Listen to their stories. And maybe tell them yours.
