Author:Iain Sinclair
A novel about London -- its past, its people, its underbelly and its madness.
"In this extraordinary work Sinclair combines a spiritual inquest into the Whitechapel Ripper murders and the dark side of the late Victorian imagination with a posse of seedy book dealers hot on the trail of obscure rarities of that period. These ruined and ruthless dandies appear and disappear through a phantasmagoria interspersed with occult conjurings and reflections on the nature of fiction and history" GUARDIAN
A moving story, a condemnation of the way we treat our old friends and loves, a rage against the dying of the light
