School’s Out! #53 - Owen Hatherley

Every last Friday of the month the Independent School for the City celebrates the start of the weekend with a public lecture. For this edition we've invited writer Owen Hatherley.

Owen Hatherley writes regularly about aesthetics and politics for the Architectural Review, the London Review of Books, Sidecar and Tribune. He is the author of many books, most recently Walking the Streets/Walking the Projects (Repeater, 2024), and The Alienation Effect – How Central European Emigres Transformed the British Twentieth Century (Penguin, 2025). He is a commissioning editor at Jacobin, the presenter of the Inter-Cities podcast for Open City, and the writer and presenter of The Story of Solent City for Radio 4.
