Download London Perceived AudioBook Free
London of your brain, the center and the eye is displayed, mentioned and dissected in this basic work of 1962 that unites the tasteful prose of V.S. Pritchett and the revealing photographs of Evelyn Hofer. Here is a pithy, knowledgeable distillation of the fundamental London - a panorama of its background, art, literature and lifestyle. Here is the location that Londoners know, a paraodox of grandeur and dirt, the locus of bustling marketplaces and tranquil parks, of palaces and pubs, of docks and railway depots, of the historic and modern. Great Londoners of the past stalk these web pages - Wren, Pepys, Defoe, Hogarth, Dickens and, of course, Samuel Johnson. And here, too, are the faces of people inhabiting modern London - enigmatic and long lasting. V.S. Pritchett, who passed on in 1997, was one of Britain's most important short story authors, autobiographers and journalists.
