In private houses and public parks, at work and at play, these Londoners inhabit a complicated place, as beautiful as it is brutal, where the thoroughfares hide the back alleys and taking the high road can sometimes lead you to a dead end. Depicting the modern urban zone--familiar to city-dwellers everywhere--\u003ci\u003eNW\u003c\/i\u003e is a quietly devastating novel of encounters, mercurial and vital, like the city itself.","brand":"Penguin Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47049158295788,"sku":"9780143123934","price":18.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0779\/2987\/3644\/files\/imageloader_9119b84d-4cb1-4cef-b09b-c8f3768d7473.jpg?v=1764624496","url":"https:\/\/www.gladysbooksandwine.com\/products\/nw","provider":"Gladys Books \u0026 Wine","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
