London is weirder than you think. From a Victorian mausoleum containing a time machine (supposedly) to the publicly displayed corpse of a radical philosopher (yes, really), this city is packed full of seriously strange stuff. Bizarre bars, insect farms, towering stink pipes, ruff-wearing cats, hidden histories… Think you’ve seen it all? Think again.

'Barbican Residents' by Anton Rodriguez, 240pp, hardback, 151 x 199mm.
The Barbican is a radical model of city living and a symbol of post-war optimism. Today, it’s home to around 4,000 people – half the population of the City of London, the ancient heart of the capital where the building resides. But while its towers and walkways are recognisable to many, few are familiar with what lies inside. This book is a rare chance to peer beyond its concrete boundaries into the homes and lives of over 30 residents.
‘The Barbican embodies a vision of public generosity that is becoming
vanishingly rare.' – Olivia Laing, from the foreword.
Pre-orders will ship the week of the 16 September.
