Produktinformationen zu „The Soul of London (ePub)“

While 'The Soul of London: A Survey of a Modern City' is not a work of fiction, it is much more than a guidebook.In these pages, Ford almost anthropomorphises England's capital city, imbuing it with personality and character. He traces its growth and expansion, often drawing parallels between what he learns about London and what he learns about himself. Fascinating in topographical, historical, and even psychological terms, this is a fascinating book that strives to identify what makes London London.'The Soul of London: A Survey of a Modern City' is the ideal read for fans of ¿Great Expectations¿ by Charles Dickens.-
