Description
Few cities have a literary history as rich as that of London. Writers have written about it; and lived, loved, stayed and died there. This new and updated guide reveals locations connected to the lives of writers and their characters and the plots. Where can you see the first printed book in the western world, or visit the library with no books? Where did two poets marry secretly and then flee to Italy and what happened when Sigmund Freud met Salvador Dali? What is the mystery of the signed copy of Mein Kampf? Enlightening to residents who may have thought that they knew their city (and their books), and visitors too.
