As well as the elegant squares of Bloomsbury, Ivan Ginsberg walks the decaying back-streets of Soho, haunting cafes and pubs in company with an array of bohemian characters. As he wanders, his hopes of literary success seem further away than ever. With no capital and no backing, will he ever manage to produce 'Scamp', the literary magazine which gives this book its title?

Roland Camberton won the Somerset Maugham award with 'Scamp'. He had one further book published, 'Rain on the Pavements', before vanishing, seemingly without trace. For decades Iain Sinclair was on his trail, before finally writing 'Man in a Macintosh', included in this book.
