In Metropolitan Intimacies: An Ethnography on the Poetics of Daily Life, Francisco Cruces examines intimacy and meaning-making in metropolitan residents' daily lives.
Francisco Cruces captures the authentic yearning beneath consumer society's commodification of coziness. Intimacy emerges as a positive value from the dislocations of contemporary urban life. This book shows that in practice it is an ephemeral achievement, reinforced by the small stories that make it portable. Complementing the public sphere and public space associated with the modern city, these micro-spaces of secure subjectivity are now under siege from the competitive self-making urged by neoliberalism and enabled by social media.
