Where information has been derived from other sources, I confirm that this has been indicated in the thesis. 3 Abstract Iain Sinclair’s London is a labyrinthine city split by multiple forces deliriously replicated in the complexity and contradiction of his own hybrid texts. Sinclair played an integral role in the ‘psychogeographical turn’ of the 1990s, imaginatively mapping the secret histories and occulted alignments of urban space in a series of works that drift between the subject of topography and the topic of subjectivity. In the wake of Sinclair’s continued association with the spatial and textual practices from which such speculative theses derive, the trajectory of this variant psychogeography appears to swerve away from the revolutionary impulses of its initial formation within the radical milieu of the Lettrist International and Situationist International in 1950s Paris towards a more literary phenomenon. From this perspective, the return of psychogeography has been equated with a loss of political ambition within fin de millennium literature. -

Beyond Reasonable Doubt: Elliot Rook, QC: Book 1 Gary Bell
AUSTRALIA AUGUST 2019 Beyond Reasonable Doubt: Elliot Rook, QC: Book 1 Gary Bell The start of a fantastic new legal series, perfect for fans of Robert Galbraith, written by an acclaimed QC Description The start of a fantastic new legal series, perfect for fans of Robert Galbraith, written by an acclaimed QC Elliot Rook is the epitome of a highly successful, old Etonian QC. Or so everyone believes. In fact, he is an ex-petty criminal with a past that he has spent decades keeping secret. Until now - An unidentified young woman of Middle Eastern origin has been found murdered on the outskirts of Rook's home town. Billy Barber a violent football hooligan and white supremacist who knows Rook from old is accused of her murder. Barber insists that Rook must defend him. If Rook refuses, Barber will expose him, bringing crashing to the ground the life and career that Rook has spent his life building. The truth is there for the finding. But at what cost? About the Author Born into a coal mining family, Gary Bell was an apprentice mechanic, production line worker and door-to-door salesman before being arrested for fraud in his mid-twenties. After taking his exams at night school, he went on to study law as a mature student at Bristol University and has now spent over thirty years at the Bar, before becoming a QC specialising in criminal defence in 2012.
