【Thames: The River of Time】
"The concept of the hydrologic cycle, from sea to river, and from river to sea, poses a problem for those who exist in linear time."
"The river has always been a treasure house of objects. Some were lost, some were deposited for votive purposes, and others just drifted. Thereby the Thames has become a vast compendium of history."
— Peter Ackroyd From Thames: Sacred River
