Uncommon London

the long version

Uncommon London is a journey travelling deep and wide across the sprawling metropolis. 43 contributors have ventured through the city streets and delved into their intimate worlds to bring us portraits and glimpses of the many lives that hold London together, or at times tear it apart. Routes, maps and itineraries have been especially created, providing keys to London across time, in the hope of bringing you closer to a city that can seem distant and indifferent, yet upon inspection celebrates diversity, insists upon acceptance and thrives on exuberant discussion. To be a Londoner you only need step foot here, and charge along with the rest of the crowd, flowing through the 'Unreal City'.
