Description



Book Synopsis



Through the dynamic interplay between memory and imagination, Stephen J. Groak explores his colorful childhood in 1970s West Auckland, New Zealand, in a collection of twenty-seven stand-alone short stories. With Nigel Sorenson as an alter ego, Groak experiments with POV in a hodgepodge of voices and tales that gel like the English-style breakfast bubble and squeak--a meal traditionally made on a Sunday morning from the leftovers of the previous evening's roast dinner. From childhood loss, terrifying visits to the primary school murder house, and Huckleberry Finn-type adventures with sister-mate Helen to discoveries of American fast food, the Beatles' Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band, and women, Bubble 'n' Squeak: A Collection of Short Storiesoffers teenage and adult readers a poignant and humorous portrait of a Kiwi country boy's coming-of-age Down Under.
