    Ticket to the World is a joyous, nostalgic celebration of 80s culture from one man at the centre of it all.  
    New Year’s Eve, 1979. My family and I stand arm in arm around our Formica kitchen table, counting down to the new decade with each televised chime of Big Ben. We have no idea what is about to hit us, no idea of the seismic waves of change approaching. 
    The 80s transformed life as we knew it. Music, style and culture exploded in a haze of dayglo colour. There were hardships, but there were opportunities too. And I lived through – and helped to shape – Britain’s last real youth movement. 
    Ticket to the World is my time-warp trip down memory lane, reliving that truly unforgettable decade. Join me as I recall what it was like to lead the New Romantics, stay up all night at the Blitz with Sade and Boy George, travel the world with Spandau Ballet and contribute to the era-defining Live Aid. 
    So, grab that glass of Babycham and let’s toast the very best of the 80s: the creativity and the culture, the fashion and the FUN! 
    In this riveting autobiography, Martin Kemp takes us on a personal journey through the famous and popular culture of the 80s. His memoirs are a rich tapestry of entertainment, social changes, and performing arts that defined the era. 
    For fans of Shirlie Kemp (Pepsi & Shirlie), Phil Collins (Not Dead Yet), Linda Calvey (Life Inside), Elton John (Watford Forever), and Richard E. Grant (A Pocketful of Happiness).

    The Pine Barrens

    Most people think of New Jersey as a suburban-industrial corridor that runs between New York and Philadelphia. Yet in the low center of the state is a near wilderness, larger than most national parks, which has been known since the seventeenth century as the Pine Barrens. 
     
     
     
    The term refers to the predominant trees in the vast forests that cover the area and to the quality of the soils below, which are too sandy and acid to be good for farming. On all sides, however, developments of one kind or another have gradually moved in, so that now the central and integral forest is reduced to about a thousand square miles. Although New Jersey has the heaviest population density of any state, huge segments of the Pine Barrens remain uninhabited. The few people who dwell in the region, the "Pineys," are little known and often misunderstood. Here McPhee uses his uncanny skills as a journalist to explore the history of the region and describe the people—and their distinctive folklore—who call it home.

    Thomas Burke was born Sydney Thomas Burke on November 29th, 1886 in Eltham, London (at the time it was part of Kent). 
    An author in the early years of the 20th Century Burke brought his skills of pen and eye to parts of London, specifically the Limehouse district of the East End, to write with drive and vigour about the characters he met and the places that he knew.  Whether he turned that material into fiction or non-fiction the words seep quality.  His publications ranged from these wonderful vignettes of down-at-heel London to writings on homosexuality and the English Countryside. 
    Thomas Burke died in the Homeopathic Hospital in Queens Square, Bloomsbury on 22 September 1945.

    My plan was simple. Serve a full-time mission. Graduate from BYU. Get married. Stick it out till death. 
    That’s not what happened. 
    I began school at BYU, hoping to strengthen my faith while I searched for love. That's when I met both Claire and Easton. 
    Claire was the girlfriend who offered a chance at eternal marriage but at the cost of my faith. Easton was the boy who promised a fresh perspective on life but at the risk to my schooling. I knew who I wanted, and who I was supposed to want. 
    Despite fearing I was gay, a faithful life was my only goal. But Bishop Stoll loomed over me with the power to remove me from BYU, making suicide an ever-more attractive escape. 
    I had embarked on an honest search for answers, but the fallout of my actions threatened to take away much more than my education.
