Reseñas
A la deriva en el Soho por Colin Wilson
Vagabundos, ninfómanas, escritores inconformistas, artistas en conflicto con la sociedad, componen en esta novela un friso de personajes inolvidables, figuras de una bohemia que se disgrega como el mismo protagonista, Harry Preston, reflejo en gran parte de la actitud, sino de la vida, del propio autor, Corey Wilson
