Notes

  • Research background

    'City ghosts is part of a series of short but interconnected autobiographical pieces on the relationship between women and the city as encountered through walking. This series is inspired by writers who were walkers, such as Walter Benjamin, Charles Baudelaire and Virginia Woolf, and women writers who challenged masculine notions of flâneur such as Woolf, Doris Lessing and Djuna Barnes. This piece is also concerned with the way people are excluded from the city, or marginalized within it, on the basis of class and ethnicity.'
