Description	Dans une rue de Londres, un soir ordinaire, Richard trouve une jeune fille au sol, blessée. Il la prend dans ses bras, elle est d'une légèreté surprenante. Le lendemain, tout dérape : sa fiancée le quitte, on ne le reconnaît pas, certains ne le voient même plus. Le monde à l'envers, en quelque sorte. Car il semblerait que Londres ait un envers, la "ville d'en Bas", une cité souterraine où vit un peuple d'une autre époque, invisible pour le commun des mortels. Comme plus rien ne le retient "là-haut", Richard rejoint les profondeurs...

Notes

Neverwhere is the stunningly original first novel from Neil Gaiman, the bestselling and prizewinning author of The Ocean at the End of the Lane and American Gods. Wired called it 'the sort of book Terry Pratchett might produce if he spent a month locked in a cellar with Frank Kafka'. This is a must-read for all those who loved Susanna Clarke's Jonathan Strange and Mr Norrell or the magical world of J.K. Rowling.

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, and pale girls in black velvet. Richard Mayhew is a young businessman who is about to find out more than he bargained for about this other London. A single act of kindness catapults him out of his safe and predictable life and into a world that is at once eerily familiar and yet utterly bizarre. There's a girl named Door, an Angel called Islington, an Earl who holds Court on the carriage of a Tube train, a Beast in a labyrinth, and dangers and delights beyond imagining . . . And Richard, who only wants to go home, is to find a strange destiny waiting for him below the streets of his native city.
