Features dreamy teenager Karim, desperate to escape suburban South London and experience the forbidden fruits which the 1970s seem to offer.

A BELOVED CLASSIC - WITH AN INTRODUCTION BY ZADIE SMITH
'A naughty, bubbly book.'
ZADIE SMITH
'Wickedly funny.'
NEW YORK TIMES
'Utterly irreverent and wildly improper, but also genuinely touching and truthful.'
SALMAN RUSHDIE
