Book Description
A little bit of everything and a whole lot of nothing.
Through parental guidance amounting to a dictatorial father with an unnerving fondness for the Nazis, and a beleaguered, out of touch mother who believes Emily Pankhurst and the Suffragettes are a 60's Motown combo...Joe's choices in life are nothing if not his own.
So facing a world fraught with blinding confusion and fearful, unavoidable evolution, where can Joe go but forward? Sex, travel, education, siblings, crime, sex, illness, careers, and sex. It's all his to figure out via an ill balanced blend of ignorance and innocence.
Joe's journey is a touching, exploratory novel of growing pains and personalised global positioning told with a firm grip on the handles of humour and relation.
A fictionalised biography, "Joe Public" is S. J. Smith's first novel. AUTHOR BIO: S. J. Smith was born in Manchester, England in 1973. He is now married to a fair Bavarian Frau and living just outside of Munich, Germany.
Having toiled as a professional animation artist for over a decade, Smith penned Joe Public as a possible career escape. Friends and colleagues advised that jumping out of the creative frying pan into the fire was not a particularly good move given the low percentage of success.
As Joe would say, "The only way is forward."
S. J. Smith also writes for various online gaming magazines.
