The Midnight Lamp

Growing up isn’t easy for a boy who’s been kissed by an angel and is adrift somewhere between magic and imagination, dreams and madness. The world around him seems to be slowly destroying itself. He’s frustrated at home, sinking without trace at school, and has a problem with time. And there’s the small matter of an accident he can’t remember and may not even have happened, but which might just be slowly destroying his brain. If he has a future, even just the one, it doesn’t look good. And his allegedly best friend has developed an obsession with trying to contact the dead. But for now – probably – it’s 1967, he is thirteen years old, and there is always Jimi Hendrix.
