I made London into an island for a number of reasons. Britain is an island. It's a collection of islands. It informs our national psyche. It's a wry joke on, on London's self-importance. The Isle of Woking, dormitory island town. It's an image of, of both order and chaos, and, at times, an image of where the order descends into chaos, making it, I was trying to say how bewildering it can be, sometimes, to live in the place. The infinite amounts of stories and lives and, and histories that, you know, ten million people in a city experience.
