A hidden London beneath the streets

Beneath the familiar streets of London, Neverwhere imagines another city inhabited by people who have fallen through society’s cracks, alongside monsters, saints, murderers, and angels. The route into this hidden world begins when businessman Richard Mayhew helps an injured girl; the act pulls him away from his everyday life and into a place that is both recognizable and strange. That contrast—ordinary urban life set against an uncanny city below it—anchors the novel’s contemporary fantasy premise. The supplied description presents the book as dark and funny, with its London setting transformed into a meeting place for the overlooked and the extraordinary.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Readers interested in contemporary fantasy rooted in an urban setting.
  • Readers who enjoy stories about hidden worlds beneath familiar places.
  • Readers interested in a premise that brings together supernatural figures and people on society’s margins.

Book overview

National Bestseller

From #1 New York Times bestselling author
Neil Gaiman, a novel of bold creativity and narrative genius that brings to
life a world most people could never even dream of―one of ten classic Gaiman
works repackaged with elegant original watercolor art by acclaimed artist Henry
Sene Yee

Under the streets of London there's a
world most people could never even dream of. A city of monsters and saints,
murderers and angels. This is the city of the people who have fallen between
the cracks. A single act of kindness to a ragged girl he finds injured on the
street catapults young businessman Richard Mayhew out of his workaday life into
a world that is both familiar and threateningly bizarre.

Displaying bold creativity and narrative
genius, Neverwhere is a dark, funny, and seductive tale that has become
a contemporary literary touchstone.
