Tales of Two Cities is Sunday Telegraph Book of the Week
3 Jun 2013
“Each chapter of this deceptively accessible book can be read as a self-contained essay, a bright light shone onto a specific area of cultural engagement. Or, read straight through, Tales of Two Cities allows readers to reconsider what “everybody knows”. For, with astonishing ease, Jonathan Conlin performs that most useful, and difficult, of tasks: he makes us see the familiar as though it were new.”
