NAY PLACE LIKE YEM
HAYDN WATSON
Price £9.99 & £3.00 P & P
We all look back on our formative years as young people
with memories of laughter, love, sadness, desire, aspiration and friendship. If
we could somehow turn the clock back and in doing so, change some elements of
our past; would we be any better for it? Life throws things at us and we make
decisions that will have a huge bearing on our future.

This book is a short history of a group of young men
embarking on their odyssey. The narrative is set in the early 1970s, in and
around South Shields. I have used fictional characters to portray individuals
and I have created settings and locales to embellish the storyline. There are
some true events portrayed within the book and I have changed names and places
to avoid any contradictions. The narrative conjures up a picture of young people grasping
life with both hands. It is about friendship; and with that affinity, comes
sadness, humour, love and tragedy. This was the 70s, a brave new world of
free-thinking young people. I was grateful to be one of the eight young men who
challenged the norm and lived their lives with a smile on their face. I hope
you can identify with the characters in this book and how they handle the
experiences they encounter. Finally, I do hope you enjoy Nay Place Like Yem and
in order to maintain a sense of progression within the book; I would encourage
you to read the individual short stories in chronological order beginning with Domestic
Bliss and ending with The Final Encore. |
