Anna Robinson’s third collection is a study of working-class life in London SE1 – south of the river, behind the South Bank, beyond Waterloo station, below the radar. Blake's Lambeth.

Whatsname Street is a celebration of street-life, bits and bobs, loose change, and the poetry of Class. It’s a people’s history of one particular housing estate as told by its tenants, combining oral history, archive records and layered memory – weddings and wash days, street-parties and trips to the seaside, and above all the changing and changeless demands of work, poverty and inequality, the patience of the poor and the impatience of History.
