Buddy is a moving and totally convincing account of a boy's faltering relationship with his father with an atmospheric 1980s setting. It is one of The Originals from Penguin - iconic outspoken first. Buddy has a hopeless father who is an ageing rocker interested only in Elvis and bikes and living on the fringes of the under-world. The two manage to strike up some kind of relationship when Buddy's mum walks out - until Buddy realises that his dad is involved in something more serious than he suspected.

From political awakening war and unrequited love to addiction teenage pregnancy and nuclear holocaust The Originals confront big issues and articulate difficult truths.
