Title: one sentence at a time, one sentence after another
Review: This is a book written one sentence at a time. It has no narrative, no structure. It is not a biography of London, it is the sporadic ramblings of a sozzled maiden aunt, only occasionally engaging. It jumps around all over the place both chronologically and thematically, apparently chasing whatever springs up in the author's mind, with no coherence whatesoever. Although individual sentences can be dynamic and often novel, the novelty soon wears off in the shapeless repetition of unrelated iterations. Tedious. A tome, a death knell, couldn't read it, agonisingly atrocious. Took it to the charity shop, where it's resale might do some good, but pity the poor shopper who rebuys it; should have a misery warning.
