Beskrivelse
Take a nostalgic 1970s wander through Halewood in Merseyside, where the pace of life is slower but never ever dull, and health and safety regulations didn't exist. This evocative story of a teenage boy's anxt and experiences of grief and suicide, clips around the ear from the local bobby, family complications, school life and friendships will have you reaching for the tissues one minute and chuckling the next. Sit back and watch as he grows up and tackles all kinds of obstacles and challenges, that would have once had him cowering. From his Scout adventures, practical jokes, dealing with puberty, popping his cherry and going off to university, to the surprising discovery of his close friend's dark secret, which split up his entire family, this is one of those books you have to read in one sitting. And if you also survived a '70s childhood, you won't just resonate with the comical antics of this young fellow and his three closest pals, you'll also appreciate the finely detailed social commentary and history of this iconic time that is peppered through every paragraph and page.
