This satirical first novel by Zoompad looks at growing up in the Sixties and Seventies, highlighting the ludicrous injustices of the Pin down system. A young girl is sexually abused, taken into care, and then farcically re-abuse d by the very system that was supposed to be looking after her. Zoompad takes the reader on a refreshingly honest and often very funny journey through small town England from the 1960's first from the eyes of a child, then as a horse-mad teenager. It is a journey that encompasses the very meaning of life, morality, and justice, love and respect. Why are we here and what's the point? It's a book about anger, yet bears no trace of residual bitterness, a book that kicks against taboos in a quest for openness and understanding. The subject matter is distressing, yet this book will leave the reader feeling strangely uplifted and eager to blow the dust off that collection of the sixties and seventies music.
