What would dwelling in the metropolis be? In a metropolis that sunders the old values of familial relationships once embodied in the holiday shacks of yesteryear, with their unity between inner and outer and self and world.
Does not dwelling in the metropolis mean taking up residence somewhere? It is finding one's own place once the organic conception with place, community and nation has gone or been negated by the economy and politics.
Does it not appear to be limited to choosing a house or apartment from which one explores one's surroundings? There is no longer a harmonious relationship to place to any more; but there is a utopian longing to restore the lost harmony.
