If you saw this huge house on the left behind a common chain link fence, you might rightly guess that it has been abandoned since 1977. The mansion on the right is behind a bamboo screen and is housing the poor of Vangvieng, Vietnam. The fences people choose frequently reflect the value they place in the homes they enclose. If you value your home more than a chain link's worth, come to the library and check out one of these books.
