Synopsis
Hendon has moved on from its heyday as the prime source of horse feed in London. Urban sprawl has superimposed itself on the open fields, and the sky above is a rash of spume from Heathrow jets, one every minute. Not a fashionable place to live, it's said. But the High Downs retains a certain pastoral laziness, a straw-in-the teeth mentality. The people live here in their fashion, fashioning a life that deserves celebration. Long may they. Augustus Young's 'Lampion and His Bandits: Literature of the Cordel in Brazil' was published by Menard in 1994. His latest book is 'Light Years', a prose chronicle (London Magazine editions / Enitharmon Press, 2002). he has worked as an epidemiologist in London.
