17 Your Heart Is A Muscle The Size Of Your Fist by Sunil Yapa
Backdrop Settle WTO demonstrations day one 1999. Pick up Forty Licks play Street Fighting Man then Gimme Shelter.
An ambitious multiplicity of a novel about the disparity between the first and third world, between the winners and losers of globalisation, the peoples right to protest versus the state. Add an estranged son and father, something of a love story. Then mildly spice it up with some Gandhian non-violent protest, which proved totally useless against a self righteous police force defending their city.
Limit the time frame then add a healthy dash of anarchism replay Street Fighting Man. Season with morality, guilt and ethics and you have an interesting novel set on the first day of the protests which were something of a global cultural game changer in 1999.
