The death of Charles Price's father puts him in the position of saving the family shoe factory. After several failed attempts, Charles is offered an interesting idea; convert the old factory to make sexy, fetish foot ware. Will the plan be enough to save the family business or will it make him the laughingstock of Northamptonshire?

In meticulous, hilarious, and agonizing detail, THIS IS OUR YOUTH follows forty-eight hours of three very lost young souls in the big city at the dawn of the Reagan Era: Warren Straub, a dejected nineteen-year-old who steals fifteen thousand dollars from his abusive lingerie-tycoon father; Dennis Ziegler, the charismatic domineering drug-dealing friend who helps him put the money to good use; and Jessica Goldman, the anxiously insightful young woman Warren yearns for.
