On Brick Laneis a journey into the heart of the East End, an excavation of past, memory, place and people. By looking at a single street, Rachel Lichtenstein teases out the story of one of London's most vibrant and dynamic communities. It is a story of immigration - of Huguenots, Jews, Bangladeshis; of anarchists and fascists; of abandoned synagogues, teeming mosques and incongruent Hawksmoor churches; of gangsters and artists; shopkeepers and street life; the beating heart of a never-still, always-vocal people. With Lichtenstein's skilful guidance, it becomes a trip through a world that is at once recognizable, but also wonderfully stange. No s'han trobat descripcions de biblioteca. |

Lichtenstein, author, artist, granddaughter to Brick Lane residents -- writes a book about the changing face of this historic East End street from the Jewish "Lower East Side" to the present day of posh night clubs, Indian restuarants, and large influx of Bangeldesh and Asian residents. ( )
