Culled from his regular columns in the London Guardian and Britain's homeless paper, The Big Issue, Stone passionately documents life as experienced "in every run-down council estate in the land, peopled by the forgotten generation of post-Thatcherite Britain: the poor, the ejected, the rejected, the lost." Not since Orwell has someone written with such vigor, passion, and anger, about the other half. Unlike Orwell, C.J. isn't just paying a visit, that's where he's always lived. "The last time I spoke to C.J. was a year or two back; he'd given up writing and become a car park attendant. 'But why?' I asked him. 'Because for the time being I've had enough of going nowhere he replied.' Now isn't that just it?" —Penny Rimbaud, from the preface
