Centuries ago, in 1972, when flares were hip, "Layla" was in the charts for the first time and everyone had long hair, a thin, sly youth with an art O level and anarchic dreams went to live in an Oxford commune. Although his career was embryonic, he became known as Rob the cartoonist. Life was a round of parties, illegal substances and world-changing ideas. But before long, Rob's geodesic dome leaked rain, his dog fell pregnant, and his girlfriend fled to New Mexico. Real life began to intervene.
Some time around 1973, the party ended--abruptly and humiliatingly--in a police station in Newbury. Reserving his right to remain silent, young Robert decided to save his excuses for a future generation. Now it's time to come clean. "Thin He Was and Filthy-Haired" is his remarkable (teenage) life story. And it's funnier than you'd ever believe.
