'Rock Rock' is the explosive first novel from Glasgow author Stephen Najda. A coming of age story with a difference. Rock Rock is based on the true-life exploits of four disenchanted youths escaping from the grime and deprivation of a Glasgow housing scheme. Set against a backdrop of Thatcher's Britain in the late 1970's, the music is loud, and the boys are ready for change and excitement. Rich in detail and humour, Najda powerfully re-captures his sixteen-year-old self to produce the social unrest of the time. With two passions in life; punk rock and rock climbing, the author and his mates, Bish, Rep and Spiney form a punk rock band, BCT, together with Luscious Lucy and spend weekends in the mountains escaping from their mundane lives. High on the adrenaline buzz from climbing, they lurch from one epic to the next with the freedom of youth and incredible luck on their side. The tragic and drug related death of Jacko, inspires the author to question what the fatal attraction of the mountains really is and the relationship between the risks on the mountains compared to Jacko's lifestyle. Are they so different? Or merely alternative addictions? Teenage Kicks with a difference, join the BCT and follow the chaotic carry-on and cocked-up adventures as the four travel at high speed through Glasgow, the Scottish Highlands and France. This fast and furious rad is a must for anyone who was there, and anyone who wishes that they had been!
