Deveney's photographs explore 'Cinderella'-style homes built throughout the American Southwest in the 1950s and '60s, when developers applied fairytale-style aesthetics to ranch house exteriors. This book marks the first time these houses are the subject of a publication. These images tell us about a fading vision of the American dream, the last indications of a zeitgeist that encouraged Americans to aspire to a candycoated vision of family and home.
