Chapter 1/ Infinite London: the London-ness of London -- Chapter 2/ The Disintegration of London in Alan Moore's Psychogeography -- Chapter 3/ Peter Ackroyd's Sensuous Detective Method in Hawksmoor -- Chapter 4/ Writing Psychogeography, Writing London through a Screen Darkly: White Chappell, Scarlet Tracings -- Chapter 5/ London-ness: a Marriage of the Literary and the Psychogeographical.

This Pivot book examines literary elements of urban topography that have animated Alan Moore, Peter Ackroyd, and Iain Sinclair's respective representations of London-ness. Ann Tso argues these authors write London "psychogeographically" to deconstruct popular visions of London with colonial and neoliberal undertones. Moore's psychogeography consists of bird's-eye views that reveal the brute force threatening to unravel Londonscape from within; Ackroyd's aims to detect London sensuously, since every new awareness recalls an otherworldly London; Sinclair's conjures up a narrative consciousness made erratic by London's disunified landscape. Drawing together the dystopian, the phenomenological, and the postcolonial, Tso explores how these texts characterize "London-ness" as estranging.
