Writer, artist, and filmmaker, Chris Shepherd's debut graphic novel depicts a coming of age story centred around growing up in the working-class dynamics of Merseyside in the late eighties. As Conor Sterling is about to turn 18, he wrestles with the tough choice to go to art college or look after his sick, dominating grandmother? While life seems to move faster, he falls for a West-Indian girl who his grandmother disapproves of. Conor is torn between doing the right thing for him or submitting to the will of his crazy grandmother. What follows is a funny and poignant coming of age story set in Liverpool in 1989. The land of The La's, the Hillsborough disaster and Findus Crispy Pancakes.
