?These vivid stories capture London?s polymorphous perversities in new voices, distinctively of their time and place.? Marina Warner Well Sorted is the second volume of London short stories to be sponsored by the London Arts Board. Four hundred and fifty stories were judged by Ester Freud, Blake Morrison and Marina Warner. The 16 winners are printed in Well Sorted together with commissioned stories by well known London writers - Francis King, Deborah Levy, Lauretta Ngcobo, Iain Sinclair and Atima Srivastava. Narrators include Cats, sexually transmitted diseases, Restoration stablelads, and gay dandies - fair reflection of the gendered, cultural and historical diversity that is London today.
