'By seeing London, I have seen as much of life as the world can show.' - Samuel JohnsonFrom Chaucer's pilgrims meeting in a Southwark inn to the Hogwarts Express leaving from King's Cross, London has always been a popular place for writers to weave into their own work.

Celebrated London historian Stephen Halliday traces the stories from one end of London to the other, digging into the history and character that has made it an unrivalled source of inspiration for authors and poets from the Middle Ages to the early 2000s and beyond.

Hardcover. Etat : new. Hardcover. The only guide to London's literary landmarks is updated in this new edition. London is unrivalled as a source of inspiration for writers from Geoffrey Chaucer to J.K. Rowling. Fictional London will explore the capital both from the viewpoint of the many writers who have used it as a stage for their plots and their characters; and of the readers whose imagination is fired by the knowledge that they are standing outside the home of David Copperfield on the Strand or Count Dracula's residence in Piccadilly. All of London's clubs, pubs, restaurants, houses and streets that have been made famous in the works of the likes of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, Ian Fleming, Charles Dickens and Evelyn Waugh are featured in this exhaustively researched volume. Listed geographically, each entry provides a description of the location, its place in literature and its inspiration. From Fleming's legendary Blades Club in Mayfair, that made appearances in both Moonraker and Goldfinger, to Waugh's bohemian Shepheard's Hotel from Vile Bodies, that was based on the celebrated Cavendish Hotel, to the haunts of Sherlock Holmes and Bertie Wooster, Fictional London will appeal to all lovers of classic fiction set in the great city. AUTHOR: Stephen Halliday is a lecturer, broadcaster and writer of many books and articles with a particular interest in the history of London from Roman times to the present day. His has previously published several books with The History Press, including London's Markets (2014), Underground to Everywhere (2013) and The Great Stink of London (2001). 20 b/w illustrations The only guide to London's literary landmarks is updated for this new edition Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
