'In Conversation' evening with Iain Sinclair and Nick Papadimitriou
Thu 8 June 2017

Iain Sinclair is best known for his book London Orbital, an account of his walking and exploring the terrain close by the M25. Iain is a prolific writer of both fiction and non-fiction and has presented a number of films for TV and cinema.
Nick Papadimitriou's exploratory walks led him to coin the phrase 'Deep Topography', an amalgam of writing and observation. His much-acclaimed Scarp is a survey of the northern edges of London. Nick is the subject fo John Roger's film The London Perambulator.
