Pewter Wings, Golden Horns, Stone Veils, John Hejduk's newest work, is an architectural journey/novel traversing a mental/physical landscape of architectural sites, churches, chapels, and cathedrals.

The narrative unfolds between framed views, reading space, drawings, and texts that have formed a solid.
