More About the Author
Product Description
Review
'Fitzrovia, Soho north of Oxford Street, has been the home of prostitutes, writers, criminals, painters and elderly ladies with bohemian pasts. All memorably Chronicled in this enchanting book.' Sir John Mortimer; 'A witty, vivacious, picaresque romp through Fitzrovia's history, inhabited by debauchery, high minds, skulduggery and creativity.' Angela Neustatter
Product Description
This remarkable book provides an irresistibly idiosyncratic portrait of London in miniature. From its marvellously illustrated pages leaps a collection of tender, comic, shocking, sometimes alarming vignettes, a rogues' gallery of characters past and present - the famous, infamous and unfamous - who have, over the last 400 years, made this bohemian corner of the city what it is.
