Book description
John Lanchester, author of Whoops! and Capital takes us
on a whirlwind tour of the Tube to show its secrets, just how much we
take for granted about it, and what we're really talking about, since
we so often do talk about it. In short, he shows what a marvel it is -
part of a series of twelve books tied to the twelve lines of the
London Underground, as Tfl celebrates 150 years of the Tube with Penguin.
