The Cambridge Connection

I lived in Cambridge for twenty years during which time I met many interesting and inspirational characters. Some of whom will appear over and again in this section. These characters know who they are for sure but I wonder whether others will recognize them.

And Cambridge is such a character in its own right, looming up as it does, through the Cam fog – passageways and streetlights, broken bicycles and clock towers. Like Piranesi’s Carceri, the hidden, cloistered world of the colleges is so much more intriguing for being glimpsed through iron-studded gates.
