Über das Buch

Did you know that an invisible mountain is rising above the streets of the capital – and, at over 1,400 metres, it is Britain's highest peak? This ingenious new book is an account of the ascent of Mount London by a hardened team of writers, poets and urban cartographers, each one scaling a smaller mountain within the city – from Crystal Palace (112m) to Primrose Hill (78m) – until the accumulative climb exceeds the height of Ben Nevis.Also available as an eBook here.The essays and stories in Mount London unpeel London's history, geography and psychogeography, reimagining the city as mountainous terrain and exploring what it's like to move through the urban landscape. Ascents of London's natural peaks are offset by expeditions to the artificial mountains of the city – the Shard (306m), the chimneys of Battersea Power Station (103m) – and the search for 'ghost hills' in the back streets of Whitechapel and Finsbury.Mount London is a unique and visionary record of the vertical city. With contributions by Iain Sinclair, Helen Mort, Joe Dunthorne, Sarah Butler, Inua Ellams, Bradley Garrett and many more.
