The Colour Of Memory by Geoff Dyer
A series of loosely linked vignettes follows a group of twentysomething friends drifting through late-1980s Brixton, moving between parties, love affairs, dead-end jobs, and the occasional petty theft under the shadow of Thatcher-era politics. Wry, digressive, and self-aware, the narrative blends memoir and fiction to examine how everyday moments are remembered, misremembered, and turned into story. The result is a bittersweet portrait of urban bohemia, where the texture of ordinary life and the fallibility of memory take center stage.
