Viac o knihe
Fresh, original, and heartbreaking, this utterly distinctive memoir immerses readers in the world of a thirteen-year-old boy named Byron, who is desperate to escape his harsh reality. Tired of being bullied for his mannerisms, he grapples with a father who embodies toxic masculinity and a mother who has abandoned the family. Set against the backdrop of the new millennium, with Madonna's "Music" dominating the charts, Byron yearns for adventure and freedom. He embarks on a wild journey through Nottingham's vibrant underground scene, where he encounters the captivating Lady Die, a podium dancer and hellraiser. This exhilarating escapade is filled with shocking, funny, and heart-wrenching moments that reflect the struggles of growing up in a stifling environment. However, as the thrill of hedonism fades, Byron faces a life-altering revelation that forces him to confront his reality. Bold, poignant, and riotously funny, this memoir is a hotly anticipated debut from one of Britain's most exciting young writers, destined to resonate with readers and leave a lasting impact.
