Bottle Rocket Hearts / Zoe Whittall

Public ISBD Title : Bottle Rocket Hearts Material Type: printed text Authors: Zoe Whittall, Author Publisher: Cormorant Books Publication Date: 2007 ISBN (or other code): 978189715106 Languages : English (eng) Descriptors: Fiction Queer Youth and Teenagers Abstract: From the Feminist Review: If I were to describe Bottle Rocket Hearts as a sort of creative autobiography replete with journal excerpts and a first person narrator, which also reads like a queer coming of age novel, you probably wouldn?t want to read it. But for anyone who has ever tried to align their politics with their personal life and discovered a plethora of limits and contradictions, this book will be a fun, fast-paced read. And it has punk rock bulging from the seams and postmodern emotional conundrums that will resonate with those who have tried to live in uncharted territory. Having read Zoe Whittal?s tightly crafted tale, I?ve had to reassess my position on the idea that diaries are cheesy and coming of age novels are boring. Bottle Rocket Hearts suggests otherwise.
