schnauzermum 's review for:
All the Devils Are Here
by David Seabrook
This isn’t the Kent of oast houses and cherry trees. Seabrook takes us to some of the less loved parts of the county in a discursive reflection that takes in Dickens, Richard Dadd, TS Eliot, John Buchan, William Joyce (Lord Haw-Haw), Freddie Mills and Charles Hawtrey. I love both the way he saw and the way he wrote. Seabrook seems to revel in the strangeness of the everyday. Recommended for lovers of WG Sebald, Iain Sinclair and Jonathan Meades.
