At last anyone brave enough to visit Scarfolk has the means to find their way around. From the Ritual May Pylon and Inexplicable Leg Mound to the School Of Benevolent Menticide, all the town's fascinating sites are here. For those as yet unfamiliar with this most particular region, which has been documented online since 2013, Scarfolk is a town in North West England that did not progress beyond 1979. Instead, the entire decade of the 1970s loops ad infinitum. In Scarfolk, pagan rituals blend seamlessly with science; hauntology is a compulsory subject at school, and everyone must be in bed by 8pm because they are perpetually running a slight fever. Scarfolk & Environs: Road & Leisure Map For Uninvited Tourists is a large format map that comes in a bespoke folder, with extras.

This thoroughly researched guide is an essential companion for fans of Le Carre.

John Le Carre's London

For seven years Herb Lester has been documenting London's most interesting shops, restaurants, cafes, parks, museums and galleries in printed guides. Now we present Herb Lester's London Address Book, a selection of those places that make the city special. Small and tightly focused, our guides are concise city tours in a handy fold-out format that slips neatly into an intrepid traveler's pocket. Our aim is to introduce readers to new places as well as re-evaluating familiar ones, and we are as keen to find a new way to see the Louvre as we are to discover an untouched 1950s caf�. Informed by on-the-ground research, our one-sheet guides and maps uncover what makes a city special. They are written and researched in-house, and an Illustrated by who has been specially chosen for the subject designs each one. Whether it's an excursion into the greener areas of London (more numerous than you might think), Paris's beatnik bookshops, the otherworldly landscape just outside Reykjavik, or the watering holes of Brooklyn, we highlight what makes a place distinctive with our specialist knowledge and illustrations with vintage charm. In A6 format, the guides fit easily into a pocket and then expand out to A3 or A2 to display the attractions of each city. Each fine-quality sheet is litho-printed in England on 100% recycled stock.
