Tunnel Visions by Christopher Ross

When Christopher Ross put on a hi-visibility vest and joined London Underground as a station assistant, he discovered a Plato's cave of reflection and human comedy, populated by streakers, buskers, onanists and angry commuters. A meditation on life, a philosophical enquiry into human nature and a profoundly funny dissection of urban madness.

‘This is one of the most original and surprising books that I have read for years: a reflection on city life by an unusual mind that proves just how extraordinary the ordinary can be’ Christopher Matthew, Daily Mail (Critics Choice)

‘Ross has produced a truly brilliant book.’ Gary Younge, Guardian

‘Very funny…a parable of our times.’ Iain Sinclair, Daily Telegraph

‘…this unique, utterly original little philosophical tome. This is pop philosophy in its best sense: a kind of subterranean “Sophie’s World”, but more adult, darker-edged, its modest wisdom harder won.’ Literary Review

Christopher Ross lives in Oxfordshire. Tunnel Visions is his first book.
