THE SUNDAY TIMES TOP TEN BESTSELLER SHORTLISTED FOR THE PENDERYN MUSIC BOOK
PRIZE 'Tender, wise and funny' Sunday Express 'Beautifully observed, deadly
funny' Max Porter Before becoming an acclaimed musician and writer, Tracey Thorn
was a typical teenager: bored and cynical, despairing of her aspirational
parents. Her only comfort came from house parties and the female pop icons who
hinted at a new kind of living. Returning to the scene of her childhood, Thorn
takes us beyond the bus shelters, the pub car parks and the weekly discos, to
the parents who wanted so much for their children and the children who wanted
none of it. With great wit and insight, Thorn reconsiders the Green Belt
post-war dream so many artists have mocked, and yet so many artists have come
from.
