The narrow or shallow house is a secret world in which normal sized people confront or relish the inevitable tight squeeze within. At its best, smallness enforces simplicity and efficiency. At its worst, it may make the resident or visitor feel cramped, suffocated or squashed. Narrowness broadens the creative touch but restricts the choice of furniture, and of friends. Shallowness streamlines acquisitiveness but limits personal depth. Persons of Meagre Mansions (PMMs) may take heart: there is always some other PMM in a worse hole somewhere. The world's smallest houses are humorously examined. Enjoy! Anyone suffering from claustrophobia, however, should avert their eyes and put this book down now. Failure to do so may result in anxiety, panic attacks, hot flushes, increased blood pressure, tension, sweating, hyperventilating, nausea and fainting. If in doubt, consult a doctor before buying your copy of this miniature masterpiece.
