Littlewood’s rip-roaring trawl through Soho takes readers from brothels to celebrity hang-outs, taking in plenty of old queens along the way.

 

What is the correct etiquette when visiting a brothel? How should someone react when a transsexual wants to show off her latest surgery? And is it appropriate to speak to TV personalities when they’re buying underwear? These are just a few of the dilemmas that Littlewood ponders from his designer clothing store, Dirty White Boy.

 

Featuring a cast of characters that range from Angela the feisty trannie to Pam the fag lady, plus a feast of celebrity cameos, here is a fascinating snapshot of modern London, amid which a strange and touching love story emerges.
