About this audiobook
London. A candidate for global capital. Center of an Empire. The swift-beating heart of culture. A sprawling metropolis of life’s rich tapestry. And a bewildering Escher city-scape of overlapping and colliding forces. People, streets, buildings interweaving and interchanging. And our eminent writers have the talent and focus to reveal the story that lies beneath the words.
Author
