Entertaining, unexpected, moving - Reni Eddo-Lodge
Intelligent, humorous, unique - Pandora Sykes
Must-read ... as intoxicating as it is moving - Stylist
What It Feels Like for a Girl is an absolutely distinct memoir, written almost out loud in Nottinghamshire dialect, that transports you to the world Byron grew up in. It's shocking, funny, moving, and utterly explosive.
13-year-old Byron needs to escape and doesn't care how. Disgusted by his classmates who beat him up for "the way he talks," by his heavy-drinking, womanizing father, and by his mother who has gone to Turkey. It's a new millennium, Madonna's music is at the top of the charts, and Byron is ready to go on an adventure in the explosive subculture of Nottingham.
His life explodes like a wave of happiness when Byron discovers Lady Die, an impressive local figure. But when the storm of emotions subsides, he will face a subversive encounter that will change his life forever. It is the unique, highly anticipated, and addictive debut of one of Britain's most exciting new writers.
