{"product_id":"king-of-the-city","title":"King Of The City","description":"\u003cp\u003eMoorcock''s second great London novel - and thematic sequel to MOTHER LONDON - returns to print in a newly revised edition.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe death of Princess Di heralded a spring clean of the soul.  And the  dirt we wanted off our coffee tables was the kind of salacious exposure  tabloid paparazzo photographer Denny Dover had made a fortune out of.   Now he''s out of work and moving to the godforsaken wastes of Skerring on  the South coast to lick his wounds.  A former rock star, this East End lad-made-good lived it up with the  best of them.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBut his childhood friend, hugely wealthy magnate Sir John  Barbican-Begg (deceased, allegedly) is resurrecting events from a past  littered with dysfunction and greed, sex, rock and roll and a ton of  drugs.  Denny''s life encapsulates the fevered underground of a London  teeming with contradiction and ambivalence, subversion and rage.  Moorcock''s hugely entertaining follow-up to his masterpiece MOTHER  LONDON captured the spirit of our age as we staggered into the new  millennium.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"MediaPlace","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57311173509502,"sku":"NW9781473213272","price":11.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1379\/1261\/files\/9781473213272.jpg?v=1778583864","url":"https:\/\/mediaplace.com\/products\/king-of-the-city","provider":"MediaPlace","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
