Human Punk

This is a novel, like the fiction kind, about being a teenager in West London in 1977 discovering punk, pubs, disco, beer, crime, and broader class and political issues. Told from the perspective of a young adulthood marked with disappointments, and then again from a sweeter middle age that is disrupted when the past unexpectedly rears its head, this look back at the high and low points of vivid youth at an exciting moment in history is hard not to relate to.
