Hooligan : a novel  Cover Image Book Book

Hooligan : a novel / Philipp Winkler ; translated from the German by Bradley Schmidt.

Winkler, Philipp, 1986- (author.). Schmidt, Bradley, (translator.).

Summary:

We've all got two families: the one we're born with, and the one we choose ourselves. Heiko hasn't finished high school. His father is an alcoholic. His mother left. His housemate organizes illegal dogfights. He works in his uncle's gym, one frequented by bikers and skinheads. He definitely isn't one of society's winners, but he has his chosen family, the pack of soccer hooligans he's grown up with. His uncle is the leader, and gradually Heiko has risen in the ranks, until he's recognized in the stands of his home team and beyond the stadium walls, where, after the game, he and his gang represent their city in brutal organized brawls with hooligans from other localities.
