Neon Roses
by Rachel Dawson
John Murray, £16.99
If you loved the film Pride, but would have liked to see more lesbians in there, this is the book for you. Neon Roses perfectly captures the spirit of the late 1980s, combines storytelling with deftly made social and political points, and evokes the essence of life in the south Wales villages and the London lesbian scene of that era.
