With a front cover designed by Sir Peter Blake, the back created by Damien Hirst, and reproducing a dozen other paintings and drawings by many of the most important contemporary artists around, Bernie Katz's collection of Soho stories is a remarkable celebration of a unique piece of London, where culture and sleaze merge happily together, often well into the night. And Bernie should know. Dubbed the Prince of Soho', Bernie has witnessed this unique village at its best and worst and often, both together. He knows whereof he speaks. Call girls, rent boys, suckers and thieves, A-list personalities and media hustlers weave their way throughout these tales of lust, envy, pride, perversion and despair. And as if that's not enough, the book beautifully reproduces art work specially made for Bernie's fictional debut from Tracey Emin, Nina Fowler, Marc Quinn, Sarah Lucas, Sir Peter Blake, Jonathan Yeo, Jim Lambie, Phil Dirtbox, Tim Noble and Sue Webster, Elk, Damien Hirst, Rachel Howard, Carl Hopgood, Sam Taylor-Wood, Minho Kwon, Tony Husband, John Maybury and Triana de Lamo Terry.
