I'm looking to add a decent John Hejduk book (preferably one by him, but maybe just one about his work) to my library that includes his drawings, projects, and writing. There are a ton out there, and I think Mask of Medusa is likely the best anthology, but I can't find it for a reasonable price. Does anyone know where to get this book without spending a ton of money, or is there an alternative that might work and be more budget-friendly?

Have you tried the library?

Yes, but when I approached the checkout counter with my credit card they asked me to return the book after a few weeks. In fact, I've tried this at various libraries, and no matter what, they all want the books back after some point.

the book he's looking for is like $150 or more on amazon.

don't even bother signing it out... just throw that puppy down on the flat bed and scan all the pages!

Watch out for this guy though when you "forget" to return the book:

Have no clue, all I know it was on the chopping block. Ok
Cool! So happy to see it still standing. I actually was in Berlin many years back and walking through them. I believe his daughter teaches architectural theory on the wes
t coast.
