La Isla may evoke a feeling of nostalgia for somewhere you have never been. Life on the rock seems different than life on the mainland. Here, in the middle of the Big Blue an alternative world is possible.
“Shreeji Newsagents has long had an eye for stocking a perfectly edited mix of obscure and more established titles.”

Journalist, author and curator, Robin Dutt has worked on this book for well over a decade. His purpose is to put the concept of the Dandy into historical, social and aesthetic context. Dandies of the past - Beau Brummell, Count d'Orsay, Lord Byron are all in the spotlight. But to show Dandyism's contemporary relevance, Robin has also included a stellar cast of gentlemen he has interviewed or met, as extensive chapter conclusions, from Sir Hardy Amies to Andy Warhol, Quentin Crisp to AA Gill, Pierre Cardin to David Sylvian.
