The book unfolds with immediacy, presenting chapter titles directly to the reader and eliminating the traditional table of contents. This design encourages a non-linear exploration, mirroring the experience of navigating a city’s diverse districts, where each intersection opens up multiple pathways.

It transforms the act of reading into an experiential journey, inviting readers to engage with the content as they would with an unfamiliar urban landscape.
