Na Londres desmazelada do pós-guerra, Dennis Knuckleyard, um jovem de 18 anos, tenta sobreviver em meio ao caos. Trabalhando em um sebo, ele passa seus dias negociando livros de segunda mão e lidando com a rabugenta Ada Benson, sua chefe. Um dia, após uma negociação lucrativa, Dennis encontra um livro que, teoricamente, não deveria existir. O que parecia apenas um curioso mistério logo se revela como a entrada para o Grande Durante, uma versão mágica e secreta de Londres, onde metáforas ganham vida, conceitos são personificados, e a linha entre ficção e realidade é quase inexistente.

Y nos anima a aportar valor, utilidad y belleza en aquello que hagamos.

A controversial enfant terrible of the Edwardian art world, the young Spare was hailed as a genius and a new Aubrey Beardsley, while George Bernard Shaw reportedly said "Spare's medicine is too strong for the average man." But Spare was never made for worldly success and he went underground, falling out of the gallery system to live in poverty and obscurity south of the river.
