Laddish plot of thirty something friends being lured back to their teenage highlights but with the added menace of adult jealousies colouring teen dreams. The poet laureate's first novel. He has received numerous awards for his poetry, including The Sunday Times Author of the Year, a Forward Prize, a Lannan Award, and an Ivor Novello Award for his song lyrics in the Channel 4 film Feltham Sings. "Sensitive not sentimental... real humour, horror, tension and tenderness." –Mirror
