The Neon Yak

Have you ever felt like an outsider in your own life? The Neon Yak is a beautifully crafted, deeply reflective novel that captures the intensity of growing up different. Set against the backdrop of 1980s suburbia, it follows Daniel Cooper, a boy caught between his own identity and the expectations of the world around him. Navigating school bullies, family pressures, and the ever-present hum of motorways and distant city lights, Daniel seeks solace in books, music, and his own imagination. As he wrestles with societal norms and his emerging self-awareness, a voice from within-personified in the glamorous and enigmatic Tina-urges him to embrace who he truly is.
