Reviews
London's cult soap opera... Tales of the City set in Portobello... a Famous Five for adults... screamingly camp and slightly surreal... W11's The Archers. ES The Magazine of London's Evening Standard
Caselton is the Armistead Maupin of Portobello. These are his tales of the city, all about the eccentric, strange and surprising people who live, love and work in the shadow of the Trellick Tower. In Meanwhile Gardens you can squeeze through a gap in the railings of our harsh existence, and escape into magical places of kindness and care in the Portuguese cafe, overgrown cemetery, and silent canals of West London.
Caselton always succeeds in making this dreary world we have to inhabit magical -- Guy Kennaway - author of One People and Sunbathing Naked
