Histoire4.5 out of 5 stars 1 976
East London, 1888 - a city apart. A place of shadow and light where thieves, whores, and dreamers mingle, where children play in the cobbled streets by day and a killer stalks at night, where bright hopes meet the darkest truths. Here, by the whispering waters of the Thames, Fiona Finnegan, a worker in a tea factory, hopes to own a shop one day, together with her lifelong love, Joe Bristow, a costermonger's son. With nothing but their faith in each other to spur them on, Fiona and Joe struggle, save, and sacrifice to achieve their dreams.

His death and its aftermath initiate a spiraling circle of treachery that will span three decades and entwine many lives.

Berlin, 1963. An early morning spy swap, not at the familiar setting for such exchanges, nor at Checkpoint Charlie, where international visitors cross into the East, but at a more discreet border crossing, usually reserved for East German VIPs. The Communists are trading two American students caught helping people to escape over the wall and an aging MI6 operative. On the other side of the trade: Martin Keller, a physicist who once made headlines, but who then disappeared into the English prison system.

London Labour and the London Poor is a rare and fascinating insight into the lives and struggles of the 19th-century poor. Written by journalist and reformer Henry Mayhew, a founder and editor of the satirical magazine Punch, it collects hundreds of testimonials from the lower strata of Victorian society. We encounter street entertainers, 'pure finders', cabinetmakers, gingerbread sellers, 'screeve-fakers', swindlers, and burglars. We hear accounts from toshers finding items in sewers, people attempting to train pigs to dance, and witness the sale of everything from gilt watches and chickweed to needles, dog collars, and eel soup.

Long enough to complete a project
The story was less than gripping and left a lot unanswered in my estimation. I would have liked things tied up a bit better for the length of it. It did give me many hours of listening as I worked my way yhrough a few different projects and that is defunately worth 4 stars because I kept coming back.

Disappointing ending
After listening to such a long story, which I appreciated, the ending was abrupt and inconclusive.

Something Different
read beautifully by Jill Tanner.
This is a very interesting but not for the person who has a problem with explicit sexual scenes .
London in 1876 is a sad world of class ridden excess. This is well written and pulls no punches.
I was initially a bit shocked but the story pulls you in. I felt the ending was too abrupt though.

Not quite what I expected
This book was not quite what I expected. At times the crudeness turned me away but the story kept me coming back. I don’t feel the need for much of the course language in this book would’ve given five stars without most of it.
The storyline was rather intriguing though and the method of speaking to the reader was interesting.

a very long book for a mediocre story.
this book was extremely long for a story that had very few highs. the narrator was great. if it hadn't been for her, I probably would have given the book 2 stars.

Half of a good story .
The last forty percent of this book has the makings of a very good historical novel.
However, the first half plus the narrator, sadly turn it into a romance novel.
