Writers have written about it; and lived, loved, stayed and died there. Here are 111 stories to be revealed. Among them are the lives of writers and their characters, and the plots and venue. Where can you see the first printed book in the western world, or visit the library with no books? Where did two poets marry secretly and then flee to Italy; and what happened when Sigmund Freud met Salvador Dali? What is the mystery of the signed copy of Mein Kampf?  This is a guide to the capital unlike any other   not only enlightening to residents who may have thought that they knew their city (and their books), but the visitor, too. These are sights you shouldn't miss   but which you're unlikely to find without this book.  AUTHOR: Terry Philpot was born within the sound of Bow Bells (which are not in the East End).
