I can not believe the negative revievs. This is my thrird time reading London. Anyone remember the saying, poem, about the London Bells? I know after reading it three times I should remember.

Greg Jane, I agree with you, this is a FABULOUS novel. I think, for many readerss, the issues Rutherford addresses are too uncomfortably real and close and relevant today. This book is WHY we read.
Jacqueline Oranges and lemons,
Say the bells of St. Clement's.

You owe me five farthings,
Say the bells of St. Martin's.

When will you pay me?
Say the bells of Old Bailey.

When I grow rich,
Say the bells of Shoreditch.

When will that be?
Say the bells of Stepney.

I do not know,
Says the great bell of Bow.

Here comes a candle to light you to bed,
And here comes a chopper to chop off your head!
