Everything is ramped up in technicolour again
Do you feel at your most alive when life is at its most precarious? When you feel untethered? Vulnerable?Perhaps that’s why coming of age movies and books are so powerful. That fresh flood of emotions, the surge of hormones, the new found freedom and the forging of a new identity.And experiences simultaneously terrify and electrify.
I can remember almost everything about walking through security alone at Heathrow about to board a flight to New York at 18. Ditto the smells and sounds on the National Express Coach to Bristol a year later. Going to meet an old friend in a new place. Massive Attack on my headphones. And the underground nightclubs of my home town, where the beat pulsed through you, the strobe lights illuminating a mix of familiar and strange faces, where everything was possible and nothing was off limits.
Then there was showing up everyday at a fashion magazine where I was an unsophisticated intern. Someone who thought Barnard Marcus was a person and it was sensible to get the tube from Piccadilly Circus to Leicester Square. Who cut off Lord Snowdon. More than once.
