Ray Ryan is a well written narrative of a young boy in the UK. growing up in some rough and violent circumstances. The story weaves believably through teen years and sex and drugs and death. It is definitely a coming of age movie to the tune of "The Outsiders" I think it would make a salable movie. The author does a good job of putting me in the scene but I would have appreciated a little more graphic and adult dialog and violence. Not for gratuity but to add to the sincerity of the work.I recommend this book for a rainy afternoon when you need a dose of sentimentality.
