A fascinating collection of traditional, and not so traditional, stories of men and women from all cultures who challenged the accepted interpretations of human potential and were crowned victorious with the ability of unaided human flight. This book is both enlightening and empowering for everyone in search of their own inner spirit.

Hench is sixteen, Bobbie is thirteen. They're home alone in Feltham with their dog Taliban; playing PlayStation, streaming porn, watching the world go by. Sometimes their mum Maggie visits, usually with empty pockets and empty promises. Then Jenny shows up. This Bruntwood Prize-winning play explores a childhood lived without boundaries and the consequences of growing up on your own.
