1 | Scenes from Daily Life: A Continuing Jou | N.P. James |
First published as Journal of the Gallery London in 1993 with revised editions in 1998 and 2001, more than 400 entries chronicle the life of the city; a powerfully driven arena of dysfunctional experience. Episodes record incidents and encounters; in the streets, with shoppers and travelers, in the landscape, and in scenes of social and internal life. As the journal develops, fact and fiction blend into a filmic sequence of events. Reality is colored by a seamless flow of messages of promise and dereliction that gently gather strands of the communal imagination into a protective shell. Table of contents: Part One: "Studio-Life" Part Two: "In Service" Part Three: "The Resort" Part Four: "Incident and a Memory" Part Five: "Holiday Island" Part Six: "Clouds and Suns" Part Seven: "Intervals" Part Eight: "Cross Connections" Part Nine: "Murmurings from the Vale of Albion" Part Ten: "Chronicler" Part Eleven: "Cross Country" Part Twelve: "Madeira Embroidery" "In the City" |
