description: 'A book full of richness, unexpected enticements, short sharp shocks and breathtaking writing' - "Guardian". Welcome to the real, unauthorised 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".
