"Empty Vessel: The Story of the Global Economy in One Barge" by Ian Kumekawa
What do a barracks from British troops in the Falkland War, a floating jail of the Bronx, and temporary housing for VWF workers in Germany have in common? Well according to our next guest, Ian Kumekawa, they have all inhabited one Swedish barge built in 1979.
