A London Country Diary: Mundane Happenings from the Secret Streets of the Capital


Add your own review!

Overview

Roam through the side streets of London and, if you look hard enough, you'll find an unexpected world - one of eccentric characters, hidden history, and secret nature. For thirteen years, Tim Bradford has meandered round the quiet streets of his North London home, seeking out the ordinary and the extraordinary, the sublime and the ridiculous. In these vignettes from his wanderings he attempts to rescue a deer a Clissold Park, talks to old people in Holloway, breaks up a fight in King's Cross and has issues with foxes in Stoke Newington. And that's just the beginning. All of life is in these pages. Well, some. OK, just a little bit. But with its idiosyncratic wit and charming illustrations, A London Country Diary is a timely reminder that you can find beauty, humour and life, wherever you call home.
