Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Souls of the Streets and Other Little Papers I was walking at midday down the crudest of suburdan roads. The vulgarity, the insistent sameness of its repeated houses was repellent. I stopped and wondered as I looked along it, how such an ugly thing could be. I believe I spoke my thought aloud. Suddenly, irresistibly, a mad, true idea seized me, I felt, I knew that the street itself groaned beneath its sordid hideousness. The bright light was stripping its red-brick common-places naked, so that, for very shame, it seemed to flaunt them in the eye. I knew that I was with a struggling soul, powerless to escape from its imprisonment, and since that moment the street has held a strange significance for me. Thoughts work within it. It cannot express them through the harsh medium of brick. But the thoughts are there. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
