Smash Your Head on the Punk Rock is a coming of age, fast-paced, whirlwind story of film-worthy proportions... "Fun, frantic, and feisty!"–Ray Robertson
Five youths grow up in Anglo-Irish Montreal in the 70s and 80s, each taking their turn telling the story... dropping acid in the past, dropping out in the future, dropping in on a present, and the result: a work that bursts in three-minute adrenaline jolts punctuated with lonely drifts of rolling prose. A fascinating Generation X tale that is built upon the lifestyle cornerstones that deliniated this remarkable period in social change!
"Bissonnette’s sad and angry teenage boys are at first hard to like, eventually hard to dislike, and ultimately hard to let go of." — Juliet Waters, Books Editor of the Montreal Mirror
"Breaks new literary ground and reads like Mordecai Richler meets Charles Bukowski meets Dee Dee Ramone." — Diane Keating
Matt Bissonnette of Canada has written and directed two feature films, Looking for Leonard and Who Loves the Sun. Smash Your Head on the Punk Rock is his first novel.
