About the book
Life on a London council estate leads Conrad on a journey between his ambition, his loyalty to his Jamaican nan, and his need to redeem himself. The suppressed scars of a life under Franco resurface in Laura's traumatic coming of age. British Indian girl Roxy wants something different, but isn't sure what. And inner-city boffin D is looking for more than the dubious distinction of being the younger brother of an accomplished thief. Spanning the decades from the rise of Thatcher to the fall of Lehmann Brothers, this is a darkly comic portrait of lives in miniature flailing around the edges of the bigger questions.
