- Summary
- "The year is 1971, and working class life in Liverpool holds little promise for fourteen year old Stephen as he waits to leave school. Two years before, he'd had a love affair with a construction worker. Then during the school holidays he'd tried out a new role, dressing and living as a woman in a Midlands town. Now it had to be London and the bright lights. So when his teacher told him he'd no ambition, Stephen just kept dumb and thought to himself: 'I'm not going to stay around here working in a factory, honey. I'm going OUT THERE, where there's LIFE. I'm going to be a prostitute, just like my mum.' Stephen became Flame - and this is his true story."--Page [4] of cover.
