Me and Mr Booker
Author(s): Cory Taylor
Martha could have said no when Mr Booker tried to kiss her. But Martha is sixteen, she lives in a dull town, her father is mad, her home is stifling. Of course she would kiss the charming Englishman who brightened her world with whiskey and cigarettes, adventure and sex-whatever the consequences. Me and Mr Booker, Cory Taylor's acclaimed debut, is a novel about feeling old when you're young and acting young when you're not.
