Description

When Alan Davies was growing up he seemed to drive his family mad. 'What are we going to do with you?' they would ask - as if he might know the answer. Perhaps it was because he came of age in the 1980s.

That decade of big hair, greed, camp music, mass unemployment, social unrest and truly shameful trousers was confusing for teenagers.

There was a lot to believe in - so much to stand for, or stand against - and Alan decided to join anything with the word 'anti' in it.

He was looking for heroes to guide him (relatively) unscathed into adulthood. From his chronic kleptomania to the moving search for his mother's grave years after she died; from his obsession with joining (going so far as to become a member of Chickens Lib) to his first forays into making people laugh (not always intentionally); Teenage Revolution is a touching and funny return to the formative years that make us all.
