The Hard Side of the Moon

In southern Alberta in the late 1970s Matthew Bishop has a pretty decent life. Sure he doesnt have a girlfriend but he has all the science fiction books a monthly mail order subscription can bring him a collection of Canadian synth rock on vinyl and a gig with the university radio station with which to share them.But things take a turn for the majorly uncool when his commie best friend is assaulted by The Man a high school hobby becomes a city-wide political statement and his mom is set to marry the Worlds Biggest Tool and leave him homeless. Whats a slacker majoring in f***-all to do?Well it could be worse. At least he isnt imprisoned in an extraterrestrial slave labour camp... right?
