About the Book


Faded Marks is a very personal reflection on East Kilbride New Town, the changes in British public and private life since the town's foundation in the 1940s and upon growing up there in the 1950s and 60s.

In another they represent a slow realisation over many years of a very profound loss and mourning for a once fiercely proud and idealistic view of society.
