Excerpt: The Construction Flops: Building a New Room (by (photographer) Lana Guzman; by (author) Edgar Guzman)
- "I feel stuffed in here!! I need my own room with more air!" These exclamations were coming from a middle-aged man, who was sharing a tiny apartment with his family, which consisted of his wife and three children. He hated his wife apparently even before he met her. He hated his children before his wife even got pregnant with each of them. But probably more than everyone else, he hated himself. What he was trying to escape from was himself, but that, as you can well imagine, was impossible. So, he had to settle for the next best thing, which was escaping from his family. His plan was to construct a new room in the apartment. As absurd as it may sound, it actually was possible, at least theoretically.
