This collection of poetry is evocative of growing up in Wales in the eighties and nineties. In ten short poems, Helen Treharne shines a spotlight on the decline of traditional industries and changes to our communities, as well as drugs, homelessness and youth unemployment. There's also much humour, with poems like Clubland and Back in the Saddle. A proud Welsh-woman, the author depicts a harsh but fond picture of her hometown, Newport (home of Goldie Lookin Chain), all in ten poems
