___________________________

I'm Johanna Morrigan. It's 1995. I'm nineteen and I live in the epicentre of Britpop. Parklife!

My unrequited love, John Kite, is busy with a Number One album, world-tour, drugs, and a nervous breakdown.

So, I've started hanging out with hot young comedian Jerry Sharp. Big mistake.

"He's a vampire," my friend Suzanne warns. "One of those men who destroys bright young girls. Also, he's a total dick."

Unfortunately, I've already had sex with him. Bad sex. And now, I'm one of the girls he is trying to destroy.

I know I have to stop him. But how does one girl fight a famous, powerful man?

A novel about friendship, feminism and finding your place in the world.

Music journo Dolly Wilde's unrequited love interest becomes a Britpop sensation, forcing her to compete with the masses for his affections. Wilde absorbs herself in her new column, giving the gossip on Blur, Oasis and others, but things are soon further complicated when a one-night-stand with a comedian comes back to haunt her. A filthy and funny coming-of-age story set in an intricately remembered time and place.
