Today South London, Tomorrow South London

Leading slacker website, Deserter, publishes unique portraits of South London neighbourhoods, alongside its libertarian lifestyle pieces. Today South London, Tomorrow South London will be a collection of these excursions – with new and updated material – capturing the people, places and unlikely pleasures below the river, at a remarkable point in the area`s history.The authors, under their noms de plume, Dulwich Raider and Dirty South, explore South London`s ignored, unfashionable marvels on urban adventures and off-beat days out, often in the company of ne`er do well pals, Half-life and Roxy.The reader will inadvertently learn of the history underpinning the place, meet the characters that lend it colour and discover secrets that can only be gleaned from many years of dedicated messing about. With trips to cemeteries, galleries, hospitals, pubs and the Old Kent Road branch of Staples, Today South London, Tomorrow South London is not only an (alt) guide to the area but a snapshot of a pivotal period for it, a time of regeneration and gentrification. It will explore how, despite these changes, the magic, the shit and the glitter endures.South London features – albeit mainly tangentially – in generic guide books like The Rough Guide to London, collections of various writing like Walter Besant`s South London, primarily photographic books like Shit London or London Villages, or in weighty tomes like Ben Judah`s This is London or Peter Ackroyd`s London: A Biography.None offer an insight into contemporary South London, particularly one from the point of view of its slacker inhabitants. No one is considering South London, the playground, nor offering a guide to the area through the experiences of real South Londoners. Until now.
