The Ravages of War: My Heartfelt Account is architect Marta Miret Rodríguez’s new book. An account written from the emotions that the Ukraine war arouses in her.

This process helped her to put into words her emotions and all the feelings that this tragic war stirs up in her. What it has aroused in her.
