Soft City is the first book written by Jonathan Raban, and published by The Harvill Press in 1974. A vivid, often funny portrait of metropolitan life, Soft City is part reportage, part incisive thesis, part intimate autobiography, and a much-quoted classic of the literature of the city and urban culture. In an age when the big city is becoming less popular than ever, this is a passionate and imaginative defense of city life, its "unique plasticity, its privacy and freedom."
