"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.

London: City of Disappearances
ISBN: 9780241964859 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 672 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. A book full of richness, unexpected enticements, short sharp shocks and breathtaking writing. (Guardian). Welcome to the real, unauthorised London: the disappeared, the unapproved, the unvoiced, the mythical and the all-but forgotten. It is 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).
