One of a number of favourable reviews of the Keith Piper and Donald Rodney collaboration, held at Pentonville Gallery, Adventures Close to Home. The review was an edited version of a larger piece by long-time Time Out art critic, Sarah Kent that had appeared in Time Out of 26 August - 2 September 1987. This review was a distillation of descriptions of the two artists’ work, and again concluding that “This is powerful and extremely disturbing stuff.” Kent described Rodney’s  installation as focussing “on black victims , like Chery Groce who was shot and paralysed and Cynthia Jarrett who died of a heart attack during a police raid on her home. The shape of a house is built from chest x-rays to equate the invasion of the home with an assault on the body - pointing out that, with new police powers, an Englishman’s home may now be his coffin, not his castle.” Page 45 of Time Out, September 2 - 9, 1987.
