ISBN: 9780141014845 / Angielski / Miękka / 2004 / 208 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. 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.

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).

Suicide Bridge
ISBN: 9781908011619 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 204 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This classic text has in recent times been fused to its contemporaneous volume, Lud Heat, but very much deserves to stand on its own. Suicide Bridge was originally published by Albion Village Press in 1979 with the sub-title A Book of the Furies, A Mythology of the South & East - Autumn 1973 to Spring 1978. As elsewhere, Sinclair saunters into the shadowy city underworld with his ever-watchful eye and roving syntax, this time probing the mythic figures from William Blake's Jerusalem and the mythical king Bladud. Previously text-bound entities such as Hand, Hyle and Kotope are made flesh and...
