Why read it?

1 author picked Robinson as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

In the early 1990s Soho, Robinson is a charming, possibly Satanic character who leads film editor Christo into a world of sleazy bars, drink, drugs, and general depravity.

It is the last gasp of Soho that died with the old century—the mysterious, legendary neighbourhood that London somehow revolved around. Petit makes it gleam darkly. 

From Tom's list on revisiting lost London.
