The Street Philosopher by Matthew Plampin
An elegant, powerful novel, set in Victorian England, a time not so different from our own perfect for fans of THE INTERPRETATION OF MURDER and THE SHADOW OF THE WINDPraise for THE STREET PHILOSOPHER:
‘A galloping good story’ The Times
‘Lust, avarice, envy, revenge all play their part in this brilliantly told, well-paced story, which also begs the question, so relevant today, of just how close to action journalists and recorders of war should be allowed’ Daily Mail
‘Plampin’s historical research is impressive, as is his command of detail…his true gift of descriptive power’
Independent on Sunday
Matthew Plampin was born in 1975 and grew up in Essex. He read English and History of Art at the University of Birmingham and then completed a PhD at the Courtauld Institute of Art, London. He now lectures on nineteenth-century art and architecture. This is his first novel.
