Description
London’s Overthrow is a potent polemic describing the capital in a time of austerity at the beginning of the twenty-first century. Award-winning author and essayist China Miéville cuts through the hyperbole of our politicians to present a view from ordinary London – of the inequality, oppression and indignity and the hidden, subversive sentiment pervading throughout our streets.
China Miéville is the author of various works of fiction and non-fiction. His novels include The City & The City, Embassytown and his latest book, Railsea. His non-fiction includes Between Equal Rights, a study of international law. He is three-times winner of the Arthur C. Clarke Award, and has also won the Hugo, World Fantasy and British Science Fiction awards. He lives and works in London.
