As Hull struggles to reinvent itself in a post-industrial context, Electric Avenue offers frontline despatches from a precinct which has fostered more poets, intellectuals, dramatists and movie makers than any comparable patch of the United Kingdom. Golden oldies like Philip Larkin, Maureen Lipman, Douglas Dunn, Andrew Motion and Anthony Minghella jostle with new millennials like Steven Hall, Rebecca Robyns, Tom Wells and Maureen Lennon in an eye-witness account of the ongoing battle for the future of the UK City of Culture.
