'Carter the Cabman' - Interview with author Toby Virgo

London beyond time and place

Toby Virgo is the author of 'Carter, the Cabman', which tells the story of a night in the life of a hansom cab driver working in London in the autumn of terror of 1888. Toby is also the founder of The Real Sherlock Holmes Walking Tour of Edinburgh, but now lives in North Yorkshire with his wife and son. About 'Carter the Cabman': 'London, 1888. As yet another freshly-ripped body of another 'fallen' woman is found on the streets of Whitechapel, the East End is a powder keg ready to explode as vigilantes roam and the hot summer nights blur into one. Against a backdrop of wild excitement and fear, hansom cab driver Jeremiah Carter and his faithful grey mare Belle ply their nightly trade, protected only by a copy of the Book of Revelations and three generations of horseman’s nous. No man is above suspicion and Carter looks to the Lord above to guide him through the fog – but for the waifs and strays of the greatest city on Earth, will the clatter of his wheels be the bringer of salvation or can only Death itself deliver them from all evil?'

This search for the city's "spirit of place" has led him on a journey beyond time and place. Along his way he has published a book, several articles and essays, walked the city alone and as a tour guide, founded the company "London beyond time and place" and conversed with authors, musicians, tour guides, historians, curators, entertainers and time travellers who all feel a deep connection to the city and are inspired by it. This has turned into a successful series of interviews called "Talks beyond time and place", in which London's spirit is looked upon from different perspectives which allow you to feel the spirit of London in all its variety. Philipp feels deeply connected to London and the power emanating from this place. Therefore, he is fascinated by meeting people to tell him their personal "London story". https://london-beyond-time-and-place.com
