All The Young Punks - Sons of Providence
All The Young Punks - Sons of Providence is the first book in my Punks Universe series that spans more than two decades. ATYP is a story that begins inside the head of a teenager dealing with loss and trauma and channeling all his energy into one endeavor, to have a life in music. Rock & Roll is his sanctuary.
Joe Theroux was once beaten down. Now he stands tall and defiant giving the middle finger to the system; school, religion, and the expectations of adults who don't share his vision. He's a troubled young man whose state of mind is not always clear even as he focuses and works tirelessly to achieve his dream. Joe is a punk and what do punks do? They fuck up.
Punks is a story of family. You will live with Joe's family. His loyalty and love for his sisters are what mold him into a decent young man despite his many flaws. His family gave him all the tools he needed to succeed, except one... the ability to be happy. Even in his best moments, there's an underlying sadness from a loss long ago.
Joe's mission begins in high school with a 1970s garage band. He takes them as far as he can. When he turns eighteen his story contains sexual content. As he matures and ventures into the world that content grows more adult in nature. Eventually, he meets a girl who changes his life multiple times over decades.
All The Young Punks is the beginning of an epic Punk journey that traverses the world. You cannot imagine it... but I could.
