THIS BUILDING HAS FOUR CHARACTERS.

The first one is RUIN.
Think of words: destruction, building, stone

The second one is revolution: revolutionary, revolutionaries - inside and outside of the buildings.

The third one is WEIGHT. Weight is friends with ruin.

The forth one is HISTORY. History is overweight, very bulky, can hardly move off of its seat. Once it moves, it falls back on top of a building. Building becomes stone. Revolutionaries collect the stones. They then rebuild the buildings.

A woman writes this book.
