The World Is A Sea In Which

I Can Remember Picking Up Weighty Tomes On The History Of Science And The History Of Philosophy And Reading Those When I Was Small.

London Has Always Provided The Landscape For My Imagination. It Becomes A Character - A Living Being - Within Each Of My Books.

I Just Wanted To Be An Ordinary, Middle-class Person. When I Was At Cambridge I Made Great Efforts To Lose The Last Remnants Of My Cockney Accent.

As A Londoner I Was Able To See How The World Of Power And Money Cast Its Shadow On Those Who Failed.

I Had To Paraphrase The Paraphrase.
