Synopsis
Bestselling author Kathy Lettes debut novel is available in Britain for the first time.Written twenty years ago, Puberty Blues is the bestselling account of growing up in the 1970s that took Australia by storm and spawned an eponymous cult movie. It also marked the starting point of Kathy Lettes writing career, which sees her now as an author at the forefront of her field.Puberty Blues is about top chicks and surfie spunks and the kids who dont quite make the cut: it recreates with fascinating honesty a world where only the gang and the surf count. Its a hilarious and horrifying account of the way many teenagers live and some of them die. Kathy Lette and Gabrielle Careys insightful novel is as painfully true today as it ever was.
