Produktbeschreibung

From the rave reviews for Craig Taylor's Londoners: "A rich and exuberant kaleidoscopic portrait...In Taylor's patient and sympathetic hands, regular people become poets, philosophers, orators." - Sarah Lyall, New York Times Book Review "From Brixton to Piccadilly Circus, a fascinating oral history of contemporary London." - Chicago Tribune "Engaging...A treasury of compact vignettes from voices that are rarely heard but come closer to the truth of the city than any travel brochure or official document." - Pittsburgh Tribune-Review "Fascinating...Makes you want to join Taylor in [what he calls] 'the London Chase.' " - Minneapolis Star Tribune "Remarkable...Essential...Enlightening." - San Francisco Chronicle "The best book about London in at least a decade." - Londonist.com "Splendid...A remarkable volume [of] countless funny, terrifying, epic stories." - Guardian (UK) "Engrossing...'Mind the gap' will never sound the same to tube travellers again." - Observer (UK) "Electrifying...I almost learned more about Londoners from this book than from being a Londoner for more than four decades." - Times (UK) "Incredible...I could probably read books like this on 99 more cities, if Taylor ever finds the time to write them." - National Post (Canada)
