Britpop Summer is the book that defines Gen X in the nineties. Elise has moved in with Harriet and is in awe of Harriet’s string of ex-boyfriends, including Ethan. Elise is surprised when he phones one afternoon and asks her to hang out. And from there things start to unravel. Over those perfect summer months, to the soundtrack of Oasis, Blur, Pulp and Radiohead, slowly and incrementally, every one of the group start to make decisions that will affect their future. That will quietly and stealthily start to end their freedom and drive them into becoming more serious, more grown up. Into operating in a world ruled by the baby boomer generation. Only Ethan and Elise seem to be the ones holding out. But will boomer life claim them too?
