Odes to the Big City

A Book by Adam, the Grub Street Lodger
"

An attempt to write a vigorous and exciting Eighteenth Century novel, today. Sidney mistakenly believes he is the finest poet to lay ink on paper. He moves to London to make his fortune. Poor him.

Author's Note

Adam, the Grub Street Lodger
“The Book of the World is Very Ancient, and yet always New. In all Times, Men and their Passions, have been the Subjects. These Passions were always the same, tho’ they have been delivered to Posterity in different Manners, according to the different Constitution of Ages.”

Tom Brown, ‘Amusements, Serious and Comical Calculated for the Meridian of London’
