Welcome to Brighton, the city of delirious invention where no one has an excuse for leading a normal life. This popular seaside resort with its infamously seedy underbelly boasts one and a half piers, a royal palace and ridiculous house prices. Bawdy and beautiful like the place itself, these stories and pictures are peopled by some seeking the good life and others who, in one way or another, have reached the end of the line. The first of a new series designed to showcase the creative energy of key British cities.
