A long-read about London as a theme in 20th century Belgian 'strange fiction'. Told through the lens of author Jean Ray & the first English translation of novel The Last Canterbury Tales by @wakefieldpress.bsky.social. Takes in Machen, Symbolism, WW1, & dreams. open.substack.com/pub/urblinds...

This is great. It makes me think of that version of London you see in Italian giallo films where a police car can pop out of Scotland Yard, whizz over Chelsea Bridge, go around Trafalgar Square, and pull up outside a house that is obviously in Spain. Or the London you see in German Krimi movies.

Filled with my favourite things, including Wakefield Press. Explored London for 20 years, now live in a city where the football team are known as the Canaries, off the back of Belgian weavers' habit of keeping them. Haven't visited Belgium. Big fan of Ray, Machen and the Symbolists.
