Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. "An engrossing saga, profusely illustrated and fully documented, the stuff that makes an intriguing feature film. I heartedly endorse it."- Bruce Brooks Pfeiffer, Director, The Frank Lloyd Wright Archives"One of the more uplifting accounts of European emigre life that I have read in a long time. It will touch you to tears right away, regardless of how many accounts of similar fates you believe to have studied and understood. What a book!"- Volker M. Welter, author of Ernest L. Freud, ArchitectCharles Paterson (born Karl Schanzer, 1929) was only nine years old when the Nazis invaded Austria and his father, Stefan, fled with his children to avoid persecution. To assure their continued safety, the children were baptized and adopted by the Paterson family in Australia while Stefan made a harrowing escape through occupied France. It would be eight years, after much sorrow and loss, before Charles and his sister would reunite with Stefan in the United States.After Charles and Stefan settle in Aspen, Colorado, amidst the snow-capped peaks that remind them of the Austrian Alps, Stefan becomes a high school teacher known for his humor and adventure stories while Charles teaches skiing, serves as a Frank Lloyd Wright apprentice, and then builds his thesis project, the The Boomerang ski lodge. Charles lives with Stefan at The Boomerang and, as Aspen grows into a world-class ski resort, spends fifty years welcoming thousands of people to the town with Austrian warmth and gemtlichkeit. Based on archival documents and letters, together with the authors' personal reflections, Escape Home is a family memoir and a meditation on the domestic qualities of architecture, where the bonds of culture and family prove to be the true foundation for rebuilding meaningful lives and finding both security and freedom. The riveting family memoir of a Frank Lloyd Wright apprentice begins in Nazi-occupied Europe and journeys "home" to American modernism.

Hardcover. Condizione: As New. Condizione sovraccoperta: Fine. First Edition. Previous owner Bookplate. The memoir of architectural designer and Frank Lloyd Wright apprentice Charles Paterson (born Karl Schanzer) is a riveting tale of discovery and coming to terms with a past that casts a long shadow. Paterson was nine years old when the Nazis invaded Vienna in March, 1938. Fleeing Austria for Czechoslovakia just months later, only to witness the invasion of Hitler for a second time in Prague, the author and his sister Doris escaped to Paris to rejoin their refugee father Stefan before being adopted in Australia. When the surviving Schanzer/Paterson family reunite in America in the late 1940's, the story takes a different turn. Connecting family history with movements in Central European Modern architecture through Adolf Loos, the author's uncle, and the American Modernism of Frank Lloyd Wright, Escape Home examines how architecture is a reflection of perseverance and how it can give form to the struggle of the spirit that quests simultaneously for freedom and security. Escape Home is also the biography of a father written by his son and granddaughter with a background of family history and personal reflection. The Patersons' loving portrait of Stefan Schanzer, who shepherded his family through tribulations with grace amidst sorrow and loss, is a story to be savored and shared. Charles Paterson was born Karl Schanzer in Vienna, Austria in 1929. He was a ski pioneer in Aspen, Colorado, where he opened one of the town?s first ski lodges, The Boomerang. A ski instructor for 17 years, Charles simultaneously ran his lodge, was an architectural designer, and avidly served on several volunteer community boards, such as the planning and zoning board with the City of Aspen and the Aspen Music Festival, where he and his wife of nearly 50 years, Fonda Paterson, were lifetime trustees. Paterson died in Aspen, Colorado on August 8, 2018. As one of the last apprentices to train under Frank Lloyd Wright, his archive has become a valuable resource.…
