Pastry

At eighteen, Alan's mother walks away. His father turns to drink, his sister to drugs. His younger siblings are lost. His grandfather is deviant. His feelings for Moira Garibaldi, a girl in the Sixth Form at school, are compromised when he is seduced by his aunt. But he is brilliant with pastry. As Alan searches for the love of his mother and the best way through his knotted life, he bakes, and as he bakes he develops a philosophical view of himself and his world.
