Sometimes a glimpse of the past can feel like visiting a battlefield. In London, 1988 was a difficult time for gay men; the AIDS epidemic was exploding, Clause 28 legislation was introduced and the media was having a homophobic witch-hunt. A few foolhardy idealists met in a derelict basement and began to dream of a better future. This book tells what happened when pride and prejudice met rock and roll. It's a contemporary adventure that will make your heart sing.
