Dubbed as 'You Are What You Hang (or Don't)' by the New York Times,Inside Culture takes us on a tour of 160 homes in and around New York City, from affluent townhouses on Manhattan's Upper East Side and rowhouses in bluecollar Brooklyn to middle and upperclass suburbs of Long Island. The result is an unprecedented portrait of the use of cultural artifactsfine art, photographs, religious artin private lives.'This is a firstclass addition to what we know about culture in the specific rather than the abstract.'Howard S. Becker, Contemporary Sociology'This book is well worth reading, especially in your own home.'Eugene Halton, American Journal of Sociology'David Halle's researches earned him a license amateur voyeurs would kill for. . . . Refreshing for readers outside his discipline.'Peter Campbell, London Review of Books'[This book] tells us interesting things about ourselves. . . . It affords us a birdseye view of American culture from which we can see . . . unsuspected patterns of tastes and acquisitions.'James Gardner, Washington Times'[A] voyeuristic thrill. . . . Lucid and entertaining. . . . A fascinating book that will open the eyes of anyone who's ever glibly said about art, 'I know what I like.' After reading Inside Culture, they'll also know a little bit more about why.'Maureen Corrigan, New York Observer
