K., a bookish young boy, learns to duck the fare but not the issues in this darkly comic coming-of-age tale which largely unfolds in a city (London) and an era (the 1970s) where everything, from the culture, to the people, to the buildings themselves, seems to be in open revolt.

Autorenporträt
Koushik Banerjea was born in London, where he still lives. After graduating from Warwick University, where he studied Spanish and International Studies, he trained with the BBC as a journalist before going on to work as a feature writer for the cult journal, 2nd Generation magazine. From the late 1990s, for almost a decade, he deejayed as one half of 'The Shirley Crabtree Experience'. In 2000, he survived the Hatfield train crash. At this time he was employed as a youth worker specializing in issues of social inclusion while also studying for a Ph.D. He was awarded a doctorate in sociology from London South Bank University in 2009 and subsequently taught postcolonial theory at the London School of Economics. His short fiction has been published in 'The Good Journal' and in 'Shots in the Dark', a Cultureword collection of crime stories. He has also been published in the 2018 Writers Resist Anthology (Running Wild Press), and in the online literary journal, 'Minor Literatures', as well as in 'Verbal' (London Books), to which he has been a regular contributor since 2016. Another Kind of Concrete is his debut novel.
