Piccadilly Circus was full of loneliness. It seethes and echoes with it. To live near it, looking down on it, is a discomforting exercise. You can’t feel the pulse of London here, though people expect to. To Londoners it is a maddening obstruction between one place and another, and few voluntarily linger there.

They have come to see the heart of London and expect to see spectacle, glamour and vice.
