  • BBC piece about Princess Alice disaster

    BBC piece about Princess Alice disaster. 140 years ago today, 3rd September.
    No mention of Long Liz!

    How hundreds of day trippers were killed when a pleasure steamer sank in the River Thames.
    These are not clues, Fred.
    It is not yarn leading us to the dark heart of this place.
    They are half-glimpsed imaginings, tangle of shadows.
    And you and I floundering at them in the ever vainer hope that we might corral them into meaning when we will not.
    We will not.
Working...
