In Another Planet: A Teenager in Suburbia, Tracey Thorn’s beautifully captured memoir of her formative years growing up in Brookman’s Park, the suburbs themselves become a central character; oppressive, secretive and yet still a harbour of sorts, home. Describing the town she grew up in as a place where “very little happened, over and over again”, the theme of teenage boredom grows into something more repressive as Brookman’s Park becomes a place “so low that it’s as if there. Another Planet is part memoir, part anthropology. The chapters flit between the s and , when Thorn journeyed back to this place she had not set foot in for more than 30 years, even though. Before becoming an acclaimed musician and writer, Tracey Thorn was a typical teenager: bored and cynical, despairing of her aspirational parents. Her only comfort came from house parties, and the female pop icons who hinted at a new kind of living.
