Night and the City


London                                            Copenhagen
West Central started to flare and squirm in a blazing vein-work of neon-tubes. ... Cinema vestibules became black with people. Vaudeville theatres, like gigantic vacuum-cleaners, suddenly sucked in waiting queues. ... The places where one could eat, drink and amuse oneself remained open, and burned with a lurid and smoky brightness. Night closed down upon the city. - Night and the City
