DEER ISLAND: FROM LONDON TO JURA (PB)

At the beginning of the 1980s Neil Ansell lived in a series of squats and derelict buildings across London. But Britain was changing - this was the decade of the individual and soon we would be told that 'there was no such thing as society.' Out of his experiences Ansell has woven a beautifully told tale, interleaving the streets of the capital with journeys through the wilds of Jura (a Norse word for deer island), building a powerful and moving meditation on belonging.
