520    "Whether one considers Dickens's insomniac night-time 
       perambulations or restless excursions through the faceless
       monuments of today's neoliberal city, the act of walking 
       is one of self-discovery and escape, of disappearances and
       secret subversions. Pacing stride for stride alongside 
       literary amblers and thinkers such as Edgar Allan Poe, 
       André Breton, H. G. Wells, Virginia Woolf, Jean Rhys, and 
       Ray Bradbury, Beaumont explores the relationship between 
       the metropolis and its pedestrian life"--|cProvided by
