Reseña del libro "East Coast Blues - A 1960s Odyssey (en Inglés)"

A fictional social history, which gets under the skin of 1960s England: its music and youth cultures and the more general social attitudes and behaviours of that decade. John Eves challenges the depiction of Mods vs Rockers in the 60s, comparing experiences of living in North London at that time, to those of young people growing up in the provinces. This is interspersed with stories of working life in a small provincial office environment, with shocking accounts of the sexism and sexual harassment 'tolerated' by the female staff. East Coast Blues - A 1960s Odyssey is the story of a young man coming of age in the 1960s; about how the Mod culture of the 1960s went sour through the mindless violence of a few. The novel reveals the jealousies, power struggles and disputes - mainly over girls - and challenges the bias of the press at the time, that all Mods were violent thugs.This is not an alternative history but the 1960s as one man remembers living it."Can be loosely compared to Absolute Beginners by Colin Macinnes with regard to its social commentary"
