Journey Around My Flat is the fourth in a series of five memoirs.
Previous volumes are The Arithmetic of Memory (on growing up in
Hampstead Garden Suburb), Silent Conversations (where the author
draws on the books in his library to generate thoughts about
reading and re-reading) and A Vanished Hand (a short illustrated
account of his long-lost autograph album from the 1950s). The final
volume is a work-in-progress: In the Picture: Office Hours at the
Studio of Paula Rego, an account of the author's ongoing close
association with the painter since the two first met in 1996.
Journey Around My Flat continues his practice - in the footsteps of
Georges Perec and other French writers - of using objects to
trigger memories. Rudolf takes the reader on a guided tour of each
room in the North London flat, where he has lived for forty years,
and includes a generous supply of photos. The book - running
parallel to Silent Conversations - is a chronological successor to
The Arithmetic of Memory, which ended with the author about to
leave for university.
