Read Down the Figure 7 Storyline:
In this fictional memoir, one of Britain's favourite cult authors takes us on a trip back to the 1950s, and to the secret world of childhood.The war may be over, but Britain is still struggling to surface from beneath the long shadow it left in its wake. While the inhabitants of one northern cotton town fight to emerge from years of rationing, life for the moment remains characterised by a 'make-do-and mend' attitude. On the wasteland between their houses, gangs of kids are still fighting the enemy, their young heroism fuelled by the exploits of Hollywood tough guys and the tales of dads and uncles who served in the forces.But it's all just innocent fun—until the arrival of one boy's uncle, an ex-Desert Rat who bring a piece of the war home with him.Pages of Down the Figure 7 :
