"Rhodes'' depiction of disaster and ensuring PTSD has the ring of authenticity: he was at Hillsborough that fateful day" DAILY MAIL
"A remarkable thing to read. It has immense power and is utterly compelling" SCOTT PACK
In 1989, 18-year-old John Finch spends his Saturdays following Nottingham Forest up and down the country, and the rest of the week trudging the streets of his hometown as a postal worker. Leading inexorably towards the FA Cup semi-final at Hillsborough, the worst sporting disaster on British history, ''Fan'' glides between 1989 and 2004, when the true impact of this tragic day becomes evident.
Fan is a book about personal and collective tragedy. It''s about growing up and not growing up, about manhood and about what makes a man, and about football''s role in reflecting a society never more than a brick''s throw away from shattering point.
Dark, haunting and deeply personal, Danny Rhodes'' heart-felt novel explodes with gut-wrenching emotion and exposes how disaster can not only affect a life, but change its course for ever.
