Sydney Opera House is probably the best known building in the world yet its architect, Jorn Utzon, has avoided publicity and until now there has been no comprehensive book about his work. The result of extensive research in private and public archives and interviews with Utzon and former key staff scattered in Denmark, France, Norway, Australia and Turkey, Jorn Utzon presents a detailed and copiously illustrated account of arguably the most outstanding body of work by any architect to emerge in the second half of the twentieth century.
