From the writer of The Twenty Seven Club... Dumped, drunk and
desperate - will a job serving ice-cream at the park save Emma from
herself? It's 1996. Emma's been rejected by the man she loves and
sacked from the job she hates but desperately needs. Feeling like
she's hit a new low, she finds herself serving ice-cream and phoney
smiles at the local park. Best mate Dave's loved up, and her dad's
finally emerging from years of unemployment and a deep depression.
Everyone's life is on the up while Emma's plummeting towards rock
bottom. Every day she gives a free '99 to the lonely old man who
sits on the park bench and reminds herself that life could be much
worse. But soon, even sprinkles and monkey's blood can't hide the
truth. She's in deep trouble and losing sight of the edge. Who will
help her up when she falls? This is the follow up to The Twenty
Seven Club (which was described by Stylist Magazine as 'a moving
exploration of mental health, music myths and why love can help us
through'). Parklife can also be read as a standalone tale.
