i have just read the finding of adam tangle by michael volland. it is a fast paced read telling the tale of a 17 year old on the edge after finding his girlfriend is pregnant. his life is spiraling out of control when there’s an intervention. the theme/vibe is a bit like douglas coupland. the writing style is first person and seventeen year old speak. it took me a while to get into the first person style but once i had it rolled along. i read it in one sitting…

it’s self published and you can buy or download via lulu.

michael is part of feig and used to be a youthworker down the road in hanwell.
