Description: The first volume in Peter Sloterdijk's monumental Spheres trilogy: an investigation of humanity's engagement with intimate spaces.

Review Quotes: ...Bubbles is as much an essential guide to modern space as it is a philosophical epic about dwelling and thinking.--Brian Dillon, The Guardian--

[Bubbles] is perhaps best read as a long philosophical poem, powerfully expressive of the modern experience of disorientation and loneliness, wrenching itself into bizarre shapes in its imperfect attempt to conjure an ancient wholeness.

--Adam Kirsch, Times Literary Supplement--
