Publisher's Synopsis
Generation F is the first book to reveal the unvarnished truth about life in Britain's care homes and supported housing projects. Winston Smith is a social worker who spends his working day wrestling with the problems of damaged youngsters, violent thugs and teenage criminals. He is confronted at every turn by irresponsible parents, incompetent police officers and pointless, expensive bureaucracy. His writing is controversial, angry and edgy - and has made him the runaway winner of the 2010 Orwell Prize for his shocking, dramatic and revealing blog.
