Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Other Side of the Lantern: An Account of a Commonplace Tour Round the World
Tilbury on the Thames is quite a fitting place from which to take ship for a journey to the Radiant East, especially when, the time is November and when the river is shut in by a freezing fog. The Spot is benumbing and Without sentiment, but it has some interest by contrast. It is the grey curtain hanging before the brilliant scenes of the play.
