Kit Ingram’s X Coranto is a layered, formally inventive work that reanimates the history of a single South London street through fractured reportage, fictional memoir, and archival collage. Spanning centuries, it stitches together newspaper clippings, personal fragments, and imagined monologues to expose the recurring violences—domestic, institutional, economic—that shape a place and its people. Ingram balances satire and sorrow with unsettling fluency, excavating both the spectacle and the banality of lived experience. The result is a portrait of urban life as palimpsest: ghosted, unstable, and persistently unresolved.

PRAISE FOR X CORANTO

A bloody and dizzying tapestry of lives that echo eerily through the centuries. Gothic, Sublime and utterly enchanting. This is a master at work.

— Karina Lickorish Quinn
