Out of print for fifty years, Jeff Nuttall's legendary exploration of radical 1960s art, music, and protest movements.
Iain Sinclair is een Britse schrijver en filmmaker wiens werken diep geworteld zijn in Londen en de praktijk van psychogeografie. Zijn vroege output omvatte poëzie en experimentele proza, vaak een mix van essay, fictie en vers. Later verwierf hij bredere erkenning voor zijn non-fictiewerken die zich verdiepen in de structuur van Londen en zijn verborgen geschiedenissen. Sinclair's kenmerkende stijl wordt gekenmerkt door nauwgezette observatie, literaire recuperatie en een unieke verkenning van het stedelijk landschap.
