Theodore Dalrymple sure doesn't like Le Corbusier.

Entertaining OTT reading. He doesn't like modernism (and concrete) at all, and Corb is the architect who should shoulder the blame for all that followed him. He was incompetent, did only "appalling work", was obsessed with fast cars, probably had Asperger's, and "was the enemy of mankind". Architects only like him today because of a "totalitarian temptation."
Prince Charles will no doubt find this article useful.

Then Corb's colonisation could begin.
But Dalrymple ain't ranting about Corb the swimmer, though it does seem he was incompetent at that.
E1027 is at bottom right.
Corb's local beach is at the top.
