\n

After you read a piece of writing by Nancy Hiller, you notice that you occupy the world a little differently. Your eyes look longer at the eave. Your palm lingers longer on that table. You ask an extra question to the woman rocking on the front porch. This is writing that encourages perception for the sake of knowing where you live\u2013your kitchen, your house, your community\u2013better. From forgotten neighborhoods to a banister\u2019s curve, Hiller takes the time to look, to research, and to convey her subject\u2019s fullness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

She tracks objects from wooded forest to dinette, and while she does she also relates their social, manufacturing, gender, and visual history. Underlying her sentences is a profound ethics, arguing that knowing more about things will encourage us to treat them differently. This is a sort of preaching that comes not from knowing better, but from knowing the daily joy of experiencing more.\u201d
