Tunnel Visions

Autor Christopher Ross
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 4 feb 2002
When Christopher Ross put on a hi-visibility vest and joined London Underground as a station assistant, he discovered a Plato's cave of reflection and human comedy, populated by streakers, buskers, onanists and angry commuters. A meditation on life, a philosophical enquiry into human nature and a profoundly funny dissection of urban madness.

Recenzii

'This is one of the most original and surprising books that I have read for years: a reflection on city life by an unusual mind that proves just how extraordinary the ordinary can be.' Christopher Matthew, Daily Mail (Critics Choice) 'Ross has produced a truly brilliant book.' Gary Younge, Guardian 'Very funny...a parable of our times.' Iain Sinclair, Daily Telegraph '...this unique, utterly original little philosophical tome. This is pop philosophy in its best sense: a kind of subterranean "Sophie's World", but more adult, darker-edged, its modest wisdom harder won.' Literary Review

'This is one of the most original and surprising books that I have read for years: a reflection on city life by an unusual mind that proves just how extraordinary the ordinary can be.' Christopher Matthew, Daily Mail (Critics Choice) 'Ross has produced a truly brilliant book.' Gary Younge, Guardian 'Very funny!a parable of our times.' Iain Sinclair, Daily Telegraph '!this unique, utterly original little philosophical tome. This is pop philosophy in its best sense: a kind of subterranean "Sophie's World", but more adult, darker-edged, its modest wisdom harder won.' Literary Review "Ross is good-natured, undemonstrative and sane. His musings are peppered with good gags and anecdotes. There is an honesty and lack of pretension in his writing ... Ross is a people's philosopher and if he sometimes states the obvious it is because too often we forget the value of these truisms." Martin Fletcher, Independent
