City of Darkness (revisited)

Now in final production, City of Darkness Revisited brings the extraordinary story of life in Kowloon Walled City — first described 21 years ago in City of Darkness — up to date. The new book will combine the best of that original edition with new sections which will explore in greater detail the history of the City’s dramatic development and growth between 1945 and the early 1990s, will look into the darker sides of its past and expose the truth behind the many myths that gave the place its abiding sense of mystery, and will explain how the City’s rich legacy continues to influence to this day popular culture worldwide.
