Reseña del libro "The Cool, Coal and Black Lightning (en Inglés)"
A spine chilling, yet somehow heart warming rock'n'roll comedy thriller, set in the valleys of South Wales. It is October 1962. Thunderclouds gather and the cold war rages. An unknown beat combo called The Beatles is about to take the planet by storm. Telstar is hurtling around the earth's atmosphere and teenagers' turntables, as the world holds its breath over the Cuban missile crisis. Meanwhile, in the sleepy mining village of Glwm, in the South Wales valleys, The Cool, a vibrant new young rock band, is struggling against the stifling stranglehold of the older generation, to find fame and fortune. But as all respectable god-fearing Glwm folk know, some things in life are certain: Rock'n'Roll is the spawn of Satan and no good can ever come of it; right and wrong, like television, is best seen in black and white; and the only civilised haircut for a true gentleman is a short back and sides. So, read on and you will... Gasp! At this high octane, laverbread fuelled blockbuster, of ambition, evil and revenge. Quake! As the Merthyr Cycle Clan, the most feared biker crew ever to debate satire in 20th century literature, plot to steal the legendary Vincent Black Lightning. Sigh! At a love story so poignant it makes Pyramus and Thisbe look like something out of classical mythology. On the other hand, you could just go up your nan's for a nice cup of tea.
