An autobiographical account of Darren McGarvey, aka the Scottish hip hop artist Loki's, childhood in a working class area in Scotland. He writes about his native Glasgow and the estate he grew up on, and the experiences he had. The book is partly a social commentary on youth in rundown areas in Scotland. Through his eyes we see a family life marred by poverty, abuse and addiction.
