The Tarmuth Layout

Back in November of last year I made a post consiting of a quote from The Scar by China Mieville. The quote described the port of Tarmuth. "The town is full of industrial yards and sidings." There really wasn't al that much of a decription of the town .so I have been trying to envision the town.

Recently I watched Gatsby by Werner Brothers and caught a scene in the movie that made me think about Tarmuth. Its hustle and bustle. Its industry and bleak environment. Its rawness, its dirt, and grime. You just need to believe that the shipyards and building slipways are there somewhere.


Gatsby, Werner Brothers, 2013.
