Inhaltsangabe

Winston Smith is young, idealistic and desperate to make a difference. As a youth worker in Britain's care homes and supported housing projects, he's well-placed to do so: he's dealing with some of the country's most damaged, deprived and difficult youngsters. Given his own background (he suffered from drug addiction and near-alcoholism in his teenage years and early 20s) and his liberal disposition (he's a Guardian-reading vegetarian socialist with a first-class degree in Politics, Philosophy and Sociology and a Masters in International Relations) it ought to be a match made in heaven.
But then reality intrudes.

Generation F is the first book to reveal the unvarnished truth about life in Britain's care homes and supported housing projects. Winston Smith spends his working day wrestling with the problems of damaged youngsters, violent thugs and teenage criminals. He is confronted at every turn by irresponsible parents, incompetent police officers and pointless, expensive bureaucracy. His writing is controversial, angry and edgy - and it made him the runaway winner of the 2010 Orwell Prize.
