Pimp London: The Guide
Edited by Briony Quested
Prestel
Being a proud Londoner myself, it doesn’t take much prompting for me to prattle on about how amazing my home city is and how it is better than the likes of New York, Paris, Milan, Stockholm, Rio and Tokyo. But, believe it or not, there are some people out there who don’t know what a treasure trove of fun the English capital is and these are the people that need to pick up Pimp London: The Guide.
Separating the capital into its four geographical areas, the book takes a look at where to go in North, South, East and West for people who like music, bars, clothes shops, art and everything inbetween. The layout is easy to follow and very clear, including interviews throughout with the likes of Klaxons, The Teenagers, Sickboy, Carri and Lightspeed Champion, telling the reader where they like to go in London.
It is impossible not to find something for you in a book like this, with directions, opening times and descriptions of every entry and as such is invaluable to those not too familiar with all the haunts of the city. Even for those of us that do, there are still undiscovered gems to be found amongst the listings here.
