In The Suburbanist , Geoff Nicholson continues his explorations of strange yet familiar worlds with a tour into deepest suburbia. He uncovers the pleasure, the pains, the supporters and the many, many detractors. First published by J G Ballard in the legendary counter-cultural literary magazine Ambit, Geoff Nicholson is the author of over twenty books, including the acclaimed novels Bleeding London, Gravity’s Volkswagen and The City Under the Skin as well as classics of psychogeographical non-fiction, The Lost Art of Walking and Walking in Ruins. These were saluted by the Los Angeles Review of Books for doing ‘for perambulation what Robert Burton did for dejection in The Anatomy of Melancholy’.
