Everything but the Girl singer Tracey Thorn
revisits her teenage years, and her life in suburbia

• “stif led and bored” and looking for a way out of
  the claustrophobia of having nothing to do and
  nowhere to go. Her old diaries were a vital
  resource, full of days doing nothing, trips to local
  shops where she bought nothing, and evenings full
  of drunken parties and boy crushes. She’s utterly
  brilliant and funny on teenage angst, and very
  moving and tender on her relationship with her
  parents, especially her mum, whose struggles she
  only properly understood once she was an adult
  with anxiety issues of her own. (Canongate)
