Time Out London Walks: 30 Walks by Writers, Comedians and Historians (Time Out): 30 Walks by London Writers: 1 (Time Out London Walks: 30 Walks (Vol. 1))

Time Out London Walks features 30 walks from London writers, each revealing a personal insight into their chosen corner of London. From ancient woodland to modern skyscrapers, motorway underpasses to stately homes, most parts of the city are subject to the scrutiny of the writers. The end result is a book that can be read with pleasure at home, as a collection of writing about London, and above all used as a thought-provoking guide to a series of walks through the capital. Snapshots Margaret Forster lets us in on her regular walk around Hampstead Heath Dan Cruickshank passes an architectural eye over the city Graham Norton takes us to the gay bars and clubs of Soho John Vidal trudges 29 miles along the side of the Thames, giving a passionate critique of soulless developments and sensitive regeneration from the Thames Barrier to Hampton court Kate Kellaway makes a nostalgic return to her childhood in Kentish Town and Hampstead Irma Kurtz rediscovers the monied pavements of Knightsbridge and Kensington Yvonne Roberts contrasts the class-conscious commons of Clapham and Wandsworth Lucinda Lambton leaps from grave to grave in Kensal Green Cemetery
London Overground: A Day's Walk Around the Ginger Line

London Overground: A Day's Walk Around the Ginger Line

Iain Sinclair explores modern London through a day's hike around the London Overground route. The completion of the full circle of London Overground provides Iain Sinclair with a new path to walk the shifting territory of the capital. With thirty-three stations and thirty-five miles to tramp - and inevitable and unforeseen detours and false steps - he embarks on a marathon circumnavigation at street level, tracking the necklace of garages, fish farms, bakeries, convenience cafes, cycle repair shops and Minder lock-ups which enclose inner London. "He is incapable of writing a dull paragraph." (Scotland on Sunday). "Sinclair breathes wondrous life into monstrous man-made landscapes." (Times Literary Supplement). "If you are drawn to English that doesn't just sing, but sings the blues and does scat and rocks the joint, try Sinclair. His sentences deliver a rush like no one else's." (Washington Post).
