The Book of Liverpool (Paperback)

Descripción:

Paperback. Bringing together fiction from some of the citys most celebrated writers, The Book of Liverpool traces the unique contours that decades of social and economic change can impress on a city. Set against key historical moments from the Second World War to the Capital of Culture year, these stories question what belonging and home mean in the Liverpudlian context, from the regenerated city centre to satellite suburbs, from the sparring cathedrals to the no-go concrete housing estates. Liverpool emerges in these short stories as a city in constant flux: haunted by ghosts, buoyed up by myths, and shifting with an ebb and flow like the Mersey itself. Bringing together fiction from some of the citys most celebrated writers, The Book of Liverpool traces the unique contours that decades of social and economic change can impress on a city. Part of the Reading the City series. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability. N° de ref. del artículo 9781905583096
