A book launch evening celebrating CONFESSIONS OF A LONDON RIVER HUNTER, a new book about the many forgotten rivers and streams that still flow through London. It features John Rogers, a psychogeographer, writer and filmmaker who has spent more than two decades walking and documenting the city's overlooked landscapes. In the book he walks some of London's most storied but rarely acknowledged watercourses, from the Yeading Brook's western marshes to a lost river in Leytonstone, trying to find a way to hear their tales. His earlier books include This Other London and Welcome to New London, and his films include London Overground, made with Iain Sinclair.
