Summary:
"A new mother takes us on a tour of Hamilton, a Rust Belt city born of the Industrial Revolution and dying a slow death due to globalization. This mother represents the city's next wave of inhabitants--the artists and young parents who swarm a run-down area for its affordability, inevitably reshaping the neighborhoods they take over. Creation looks at gentrification from the inside out--an artist mother making a home and neighborhood for her family, struggling to find her place amid the existing and emerging communities."-- Provided by publisher.
"Creations looks at gentrification from the inside out - an artist mother making a home and neighbourhood for her family, struggling to find her place amid the existing and emerging communities. We see the city as a living thing - a place where death, motherhood, pollution, poverty, and violence are all interconnected."-- cover page 4.
