{"product_id":"pepsi-cola-addict-the","title":"Pepsi Cola Addict, The","description":"The legendary lost novel in which fourteen-year-old Preston Wildey-King must choose between his all-consuming passion for Pepsi Cola and his love for schoolmate Peggy.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"He walked into the turbulent super market. There were people everywhere. His eyes swept over the shelves and stabilised on a large stack of Pepsi-colas. He could almost experience the cool fizzy liquid descending his parched throat.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWritten by June-Alison Gibbons when she was only 16, The Pepsi Cola Addict is considered one of the great works of twentieth-century outsider literature. More than just a literary curiosity, however, this tale of a teenager whose passion for a well-known cola drink threatens to ruin his life is the uniquely vivid expression of a young woman trying to make sense of the confusing, often brutal world she in which found herself.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePublished in 1982 by a vanity press who took £800 from its young author and gave her only a single book in return, it''s thought that fewer than ten original copies still exist in the world.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eShortly after its publication, June-Alison and her sister Jennifer would become infamous as \"The Silent Twins\" and find themselves cruelly incarcerated for over a decade in Broadmoor Hospital. This author-approved edition makes June-Alison Gibbon''s remarkable vision widely available for the first time.","brand":"Strange Attractor Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57196067815759,"sku":"9781913689711","price":31.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0061\/0372\/8217\/files\/9781913689711_1-pepsi-cola-addict-the.jpg?v=1772953791","url":"https:\/\/www.suomalainen.com\/products\/pepsi-cola-addict-the","provider":"Suomalainen.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
