[quote style=”boxed”]This is like Mordecai Richler meets Charles Bukowski in one book because Bissonnette’s prose reverberates with the intensity of Charles Manson painting donkeys, or Sade on Crystal Meth.” –Diane Keating[/quote]
[quote style=”boxed”]Bissonnette’s sad and angry teenage boys are at first hard to like, eventually hard to dislike, and ultimately hard to let go of.” —Juliet Waters, Books Editor of the Montreal Mirror[/quote]
[quote style=”boxed”]Fun, frantic, and feisty!” —Ray Robertson, author of What Happened Later[/quote]
[quote style=”boxed”]Breaks new literary ground and reads like Mordecai Richler meets Charles Bukowski meets Dee Dee Ramone.” —Diane Keating, author of The Year[/quote]
An authentic journey that follows the lives of four youths growing up in Montreal in the late 70s and early 80s, with each taking their turn telling the story . . . dropping acid in the past, dropping out in the future, dropping in sporadically on a present, real and imagined . . . and the result: a polyphonic work that is as akin to their punk rock music as it is to a prose that rolls in lucid, rhythmic waves.
A fascinating Generation X tale that plays off the fragmented cornerstones that deliniate this remarkable period in social change!
