<p>Glasgow. 2007. Emo culture is thriving, but fifteen-year-old Cathy O¿Kelly¿s world couldn¿t be more insular. It¿s her first day at high school. Bullied out of primary, she¿s got a new start after two years being taught at home by her Mammy. She¿s dreaming of getting the marks she needs to be a proper Scots writer and avoiding getting on the wrong side of the neds. Again. </p><p>But her bully doesn¿t wear a tracksuit. Mark¿s a third year in an oversized hoodie and Converse. A poet. Or so he wants to be. When he learns of Cathy¿s dream, he¿s makes it his mission to tear it down ¿ and win her admiration.</p><p>Will a chance encounter with a punk band at Glasgow¿s seminal underage club save her? Or will a different kind of bully push Cathy further into herself?</p>
