Penguin Lijnen – 150 jaar Londense Underground gevierd

Deze collectie duikt in het levendige hart van een metropool en viert 150 jaar van de iconische Londense metro. Twaalf gevierde auteurs halen inspiratie uit individuele metrolines om een mozaïek van menselijke verhalen te onthullen. Variërend van intieme reflecties tot polemische inzichten, onderzoeken deze verhalen hoe onze omgeving ons vormt en de onzichtbare draden die ons verbinden in het stedelijke landschap.
