# Event Details - **Event Name**: Walking Tour - Conrad's Secret Agent and Anarchism in Fitzrovia - **Event Start and End Date**: Mon, 09 Mar, 2026 at 11:00 am – Mon, 09 Mar, 2026 at 12:30 pm - **Event Description**: Explore the anarchist circles in London through the eye of Joseph Conrad in his Secret Agent, based on true eventsAbout this EventConrad's The Secret Agent cast a critical eye over London at the end of the nineteenth century when the capital was home to a series of revolutionary anarchist groups. They had come to police attention following royal pressure after the assassination of the Tsar of Russia. The Secret Agent, Verloc, in Conrad's novel is a double agent,  blackmailed to commit an outrage which ends in family tragedy.  The death of Stevie, Verloc's son in law,  is closely based on a real anarchist explosion near the Greenwich Observatory in 1894.Successive waves of exiles from France, Germany and Russia had made a home in Fitzrovia and Soho, close to the British Museum where Marx and Lenin studied, yet in an area where foreigners ran the bookstores and shops. On this walk we will find the street housing Verloc's pornographic bookshop and revisit the site of the Autonomie anarchist club, raided by police after the Greenwich bomb. We will also learn more about the actions of Chief Inspector Melville, who was the model for Chief Inspector Heat. - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/london/walking-tour-conrads-secret-agent-and-anarchism-in-fitzrovia/100001980962975586 - **Event Categories**: - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 0 ## Ticket Details - **Ticket Price Range**: min: 12.5, max: 17.5, currency: GBP ## Event venue details - **city**: London - **state**: EN - **country**: United Kingdom - **location**: Tottenham Court Road underground station - **lat**: 51.5152543 - **long**: -0.1420395 - **full address**: Tottenham Court Road underground station, Oxford St, London W1T 7RJ, London, United Kingdom ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: Walking Tour - Conrad's Secret Agent and Anarchism in Fitzrovia - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events4/banners/a7f6c63b30605f407b91e25d06517ea0c4b8e3901bf230bb3b8ea46bf0187ede-rimg-w1032-h1376-dcfefefc-gmir.jpg?v=1770702383 ## FAQs - **Q**: When and where is Walking Tour - Conrad's Secret Agent and Anarchism in Fitzrovia being held? - **A:** Walking Tour - Conrad's Secret Agent and Anarchism in Fitzrovia takes place on Mon, 09 Mar, 2026 at 11:00 am to Mon, 09 Mar, 2026 at 12:30 pm at Tottenham Court Road underground station, Oxford St, London W1T 7RJ, London, United Kingdom. - **Q**: How much do tickets cost for Walking Tour - Conrad's Secret Agent and Anarchism in Fitzrovia? - **A:** Ticket prices for Walking Tour - Conrad's Secret Agent and Anarchism in Fitzrovia range from GBP 13 to GBP 18 depending on the ticket type.
