Adrift In Soho is a novel by Colin Wilson. It was first published in England in 1961 by Victor Gollancz. The novel describes the English beat generation.
Plot
A coming of age story, the book begins in the summer of 1955, as nineteen-year-old Harry Preston moves to London. Having been granted an early discharge from national service with the RAF, he leaves his provincial English home town to find life and adventure. Fancying himself as a writer, he drifts towards the central district of Soho. Harry meets an out of work actor, James Street. Street introduces Harry to the destitute but creative environment of the new “Beat generation.” Harry travels upwards through this new world of not only artists and writers, but con men, counts, and rich literary benefactors, and begins to find his place in the world.
