Opis

In 1996, just before university, Robert and his best friend Spud hedonistically set off around Europe in their neighbour's stolen car, with the 28,000 they have acquired, ' forged documents, no insurance and class A's under the bonnet. On the way to the ferry in Hull, they save the life of a young suicidal woman, Naomi, who is about to jump off the Humber Bridge. All her immediate family have tragically died in a car crash one year previous. Robert is adamant he can help rehabilitate her; but Steven wants nothing of this Captain Freedom' talk. Along the way they meet a beautiful smack-head - dance like the rest of the world is watching - reach a higher state of consciousness - have gratuitous sex - perpetrate sweet criminal acts - meet madness and genius - open the door to hell - have perfect moments - cry in the Vatican - have scary liaisons - get mortally challenged - blow things up and see hope boil away. Robert is not looking for love, moral enlightenment or a sense of being, but he gets them anyway... well... What more could you want from a book? Hoofing It is the debut novel by Ian M Pindar, it is a rite of passage/coming of age story and the first in a series; the second being Hoofed (set around the millennium) will be out soon. As the main character Robert Knight travels through life, we will travel with him - hop on board
