Bobby’s out of school and out of work. There’s nothing going and nowhere to go. A job with Mike at the local scrapyard seems like everything he needs. A steady wage. A bit of self-respect. A chance to make good. But with the odds against him, and Mike's layabout son to contend with, it's not that easy.  Driven by a dogged determination to prove his worth, Bobby makes a devastating mistake and risks throwing away his new life before it’s begun.  \"Set in a \"sh*thole\" town in central England, wracked by the death throes of industry and austerity, \u003ci\u003eIsaac Came Home from the Mountain\u003c\/i\u003e wonders where today's working men wash up. In a post-Blairite state that pushes young men through college towards lowly white-collar jobs – estate agents and call centres – what becomes of those better suited to an honest day's graft\" (WhatsOnStage)","brand":"Bloomsbury Publishing PLC","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53190552387927,"sku":"9781786825148","price":14.08,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/isaac-came-home-from-the-mountain-9781786825148","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
