London Orbital
Well overdue, but I thought I'd reccommend Iain Sinclair's book, a pensive walk around the London M25 Orbital Motorway.
Pithy style, sentences as with Moore's clipped prose.
Connections revealed, imagined, implied- themes of dispossession, the sell-out, dead land reinvented.
Mention of Dracula's Carfax, a roadside riverside distribution warehouse for his coffins, the rise of the Estate Agent as instigator and puppet through Harker.
Anyway, if you fancy a rambling read, give it a go.
The hardback has illustrations by Dave Mckean!
