About the Book

Review :
When a man is tired of London, he is tired of life. So said Samuel Johnson in the eighteenth century. Johnsons words are shorthand for the idea of London as a multifaceted city with endless possibilities for its inhabitants and visitors a place in which life really happens and has an active influence on those within. Two hundred years later, one only has to look to Jeremy Wormans Fragmented for evidence that Johnson was onto something. Fragmented is Wormans collection of stories, anecdotes, memories and sketches that chart his personal journey from young, single squatter in the 70s, to father, husband and teacher in the present. All this against the backdrop of a city that he seems to be at odds with, a part of, and in love with, all at the same time. The pictures of London he paints are vivid, gritty and real, yet magical and dreamlike. The same can be said of the many characters were introduced to, who all come alive while simultaneously being frozen in time. It really is a great book that is perhaps a third shorter than it could be. Wormans writing is delicately crafted and clearly thought through. This, along with excellent ordering and editing of the stories, makes Fragmented a perfectly cohesive collection to be read in one sitting or a good one to dip in and out of. Ill certainly be dipping back in.
