Booker Prize winner Penelope Lively deftly recreates episodes and
places in London's near and distant past, as through them divorced
architect Matthew Halland pieces back together his present and
looks to the future. (Kirkus UK)
'This is the city, in which everything is simultaneous. There is no yesterday, nor tomorrow, merely weather, and decay, and construction'
In London's changing heartland architect Matthew Halland is constantly aware of the past and the present blending together. It stirs memories of his boyhood, the early years of his daughter Jane and the failed marriage that he has almost put behind him. Here too is the London of prehistory, of Georgian elegance, of the Blitz. But Matthew is occupied with constructing and new future for London in Docklands, and with it he begins to forge new beginnings of his own.
