Networked Remembrance Excavating Buried Memories in the Railways beneath London and Berlin

«In Networked Remembrance, Sam Merrill explores in detail the production of social memory in what has so far been an underexplored terrain in memory studies, the underground transport networks. In a densely written, engaging and cleverly structured book, Merrill descends into the London Underground and Berlin Untergrundbahn (U-Bahn) and Stadtschnellbahn (S-Bahn) to offer an empirically rich take on the ways in which these two undergrounds become part of urban remembering (and forgetting).»
(Petr Gibas, The London Journal 43/2018)

«[...] the book makes an important contribution to the study of London and Berlin, the history of underground infrastructure, and understandings of cultural and social memory.»
