SAWDUST CAESAR

From London's sleazy Soho to Afghanistan, around the Cape of Good Hope and back to Istanbul, this is one young man's epic journey in a life of violence, sex, drugs, and rock and roll.

An alternative, gritty take on the 60s youth movement which helped shape the world of today.

"Never less than fascinating" - The Scotsman.

"There's a real rawness about this novel of Mods and Rockers and a vital naiveté which could only come from someone who was actually there." The List.

"...does not romanticise this period...a compelling insight into the fashions, the music and the spontaneity of youth rebellion." Metro.

...involved with real professional hardmen...torture and murder...he packs a rucksack and leaves the country. Good move. Entertaining." Time Out.

"Brutal honesty...pretty lively reading - no beating around the bush...a psychedelic spiral of drink, drugs and sex. Sounds good to us." Front.

Raw, gritty and violent. A great 'yoof' read." IPCbookshop.

"So there you have it, a first hand insight to the birth of one of the greatest British youth cultures ever, from someone who was there when it was happening. A few 'sacred cows' slaughtered in the process!' Scootering.

"...a unique insight into the electric atmosphere..." The Argus.

"...a group as notorious for their tendency to violence as their sharp dress sense..." Esquire.
