Proof copy. 8vo. Pp. [vi], 250pp. Yellow printed wraps.

Author's second book. A funny, poignant, offbeat novel about the 11-year-old son of an Elvis impersonator growing-up amidst the frustrated violence of 1970s Bolton to the backbeat of the King of Rock 'n' Roll and other all-time greats.

An alumnus of the Creative Writing course at the University of East Anglia, where she was taught in Malcolm Bradbury's final class, alongside Toby Litt, and John Boyne, Jenkins's short stories have been widely anthologized and broadcast on Radio 4. "Jenkins's mastery of the child's point of view is complete; as is the precision of her evocation of time and place." –The Times
