Election Night, February 1974. On a Rhondda Valley bus stop, surrounded by ghosts of the Tonypandy Riots, a painfully thin 17-year-old makes a vow that will change the course of history. Well, of his story, anyway... The Great Welsh Auntie Novel is a coming-of-age saga celebrating a circle of teenage friends who love each other to bits... and are desperate for ways to put themselves back together again. In the terraced streets and gwlis , the caf???s and clubs of their once-mighty coal metropolis, they catch a glimpse of something humanity has always been searching for, something beyond themselves that they can live by. Richly comic and keenly intelligent, heartfelt and ironic, fizzing with wit and allusion, John Geraint's seriously playful approach to the past succeeds in questioning - and arguing with - all our assumptions about the place and the period it conjures up.
