Down to London from the Midlands comes Harry, a young man searching for experience. How he finds it, adrift in Soho, is the story of this picaresque and wonderfully entertaining novel

The espresso bars, dingy 'dives', the broken-down tarts and actors, the virago landladies, the unwashed sheets - so good is Mr. Wilson's prose, one sees and smells them all
