520    "Eluned Hughes is stuck. It's 1984 in a valley in south 
       Wales: the miners' strike is ravaging her community; her 
       sister's swanned off with a Thatcherite policeman; and her
       boyfriend Lloyd keeps bringing up marriage. And if they 
       play '99 Red Balloons' on the radio one more time, she 
       might just lose her mind. Then the fundraising group 
       Lesbians and Gays Support the Miners comes down from 
       London, and she meets June, a snaggle-toothed blonde in a 
       too-big leather jacket. Suddenly, Eluned isn't stuck any 
       more - she's in freefall. June's an artist and an activist,
       living in a squat in Camden. With June, Eluned can imagine
       a completely different - and exciting - life for herself. 
       But as her family struggles with the strike, and her 
       relationship with her sister deteriorates, should she 
       really leave it all behind? From the Valleys to the 
       nightclubs of Cardiff, London and Manchester, NEON ROSES 
       is a heartwarming, funny and a little bit filthy queer 
       coming-of-age story with a cracking '80s soundtrack."--
