London: City of Disappearances

London: City of Disappearances

by IainSinclair (Author)

Synopsis

'A book full of richness, unexpected enticements, short sharp shocks and breathtaking writing' - Guardian . Welcome to the real, unauthorised London: the disappeared, the unapproved, the unvoiced, the mythical and the all-but forgotten. The perfect companion to the city. 'Exhilarating, truly wonderful, a cavalcade of eloquent writing. London demands an anthology like this to remind us of the irascible quirkiness of its residents, and we have Sinclair to thank for marshalling such a perverse and ultimately pleasurable exercise' - Independent on Sunday .
