Will Self interviews Martin Amis.
But also, I can draw an A-Z of my London. A schizophrenic once knocked on my
door in Shepherds Bush and said, 'Can you drive me to Leytonstone and give me
£17.37,' and I did. As we were driving to Leytonstone he was ranting, completely
incoherent. And I said, 'Look, you're mad. I want to check in the A-Z exactly where you
want me to take you before I go further.' And he said: 'But you and I know that the A-Z is
a plan of what's going to be built.' That's how I conceive my London.
