Description

At the beginning of the 1980s Neil Ansell lived in a series of squats and derelict buildings across London.

Becoming part of a floating community of rough sleepers and volunteers, who found purpose in providing companionship and support for one another.

But Britain was changing - this was the decade of the individual and soon we would be told that 'there was no such thing as society.' Out of his experiences Ansell has woven a beautifully told tale, interleaving the streets of the capital with journeys through the wilds of Jura (a Norse word for deer island), building a powerful and moving meditation on belonging.

This is the first paperback edition of the highly praised memoir.
