Customer Reviews
One mans journey, rich in thoughts and life - Rated Our "hero" is an succesful architect with a failed marriage, one daughter and plenty of emotional baggage. The writer takes us on a journey through the city, viewed through the eyes of the architect as we move from prehistory to now, via Victoria and the Blitz. The descriptions of the bombing runs on London during the forties, and the quest for the north west passage during the 19th century, are so real and so well written, that all you have to do is close your eyes to be there. Whilst the present day of the book is a Jackson Pollocks' of emotions, painted with wit and vigour. The canvas being the building of Docklands, divorce and love over lunchtime.
