Krátký popis
Mukesh Agarwal sits alone in the Black Eagle pub, unaware that a
riot is brewing or that Billy, his youngest son, is still out on
his bike ...A mile away in the family home in Church Street, Anila,
one of the three Agarwal girls, is reading Smash Hits and listening
to Radio One as she sprawls across the bottom bunk, oblivious to
the monumental tragedy that is about to hit her family ...It is
1981 and Handsworth is teetering on the brink of collapse.
Factories are closing, unemployment is high, the National Front are
marching and the neglected inner cities are ablaze as riots
breakout across Thatcher''s fractured Britain. The Agarwals are
facing their own nightmares but family, pop music, protest,
unexpected friendships and a community that refuses to disappear
all contribute to easing their personal pain and that of Handsworth
itself.THE HANDSWORTH TIMES is a story of loss and transition, and
pulling together because ultimately, there is such a thing as
society.
