Defoe's London is a great link to the book presented in this post. Struck by the coincidence, too!Maria Graziahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08876779286144473782noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5114395886235179043.post-35936180657625896722012-11-09T11:10:39.813+01:002012-11-09T11:10:39.813+01:00I'm glad you managed to come, MG:

Oddly enough, in the novel I'm reading right now, <i>Long John Silver: the True and Eventful History of My Life of Liberty and Adventure as a Gentleman of Fortune and Enemy to Mankind</i>, by B. Larsson, the title chararcter meets Daniel Defoe in London, and they talk for a long time of different topics, including the life of common people in London at their times.<br />I was struck by the coincidence, but I shoudn't be anymore, should I? ;-)<br />K/VUnknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16379500796509756719noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5114395886235179043.post-20722535656659747372012-11-09T03:42:10.993+01:002012-11-09T03:42:10.993+01:00I still haven't read this yet.
