Iain Sinclair and Will Self: Walking London

Iain Sinclair and Will Self are two of the most important contemporary writers on London.

Their books, like Sinclair’s Lud Heat, and Downriver, and Self’s Dorian and Umbrella explore the darker, haunting aspects of the city. They are also both inveterate walkers and have traversed much of London on foot. They discuss their enduring fascination with the capital and what it means for their work.
