Reissued in Penguins ORIGINALS series of powerful teenage fiction.MANNY WANTS TO BE A FOOTBALLER. OR A POP STAR. OR WRITE A BESTSELLER. HE DOESNT WANT TO GET MARRIED...Harry and Ranjit were waiting for me - waiting to take me to Derby, to a wedding. My wedding. A wedding that I hadnt asked for, that I didnt want. To a girl who I didnt know... If they had bothered to open their eyes, they would have seen me: seventeen, angry, upset but determined - determined to do my own thing, to choose my own path in life...Set partly in the UK and partly in the Punjab region of India, this is a fresh, bitingly perceptive and totally up-to-the-minute look at one young mans fight to free himself from family expectations and to be himself, free to dance to his own tune.
