Leadville by Edward Platt

A journey from White City to the Hanger Lane Gyratory along Western Avenue - the A40.
"'Platt has created a drama that is not only Orwellian in its attention to what you might call the state of the nation.. but almost Dickensian in the recording of the colour and pathos of its inhabitants' Tim Lott, The Times"
Edward Platt was born in 1968 and lives in London. His first book, Leadville, won a Somerset Maugham Award and the John Llewellyn Rhys Prize. He is also the author of The Great Flood which explores the way floods have shaped the physical landscape of Britain, and The City of Abraham, a journey through Hebron, the only place in the West Bank where Palestinians and Israelis lived side by side.
