269 pages : illustrations ; 23 cm

The eccentric, manic, and often moving collaborative explorations of London's hidden streets, cemeteries, parks, canals, pubs, and personalities by photographer Marc Atkins and writer Iain Sinclair were first recorded in Sinclair's highly acclaimed 1997 book 'Lights Out for the Territory'. 'Liquid City' is a splendid follow-up documenting Atkins and Sinclair's further peregrinations through the city's eastern and south-eastern quadrants, famous as London's grittier but culturally rich quarters. An array of famous and lesser-known writers, booksellers, and film-makers slip in and out of Sinclair's annotations, as do memories and remnants of the East End's criminal mobs and physical landmarks as diverse as the Thames barrier and Karl Marx's grave in Archway cemetery.
