Throwing the House Out of the Window by Ben Richards

Jamie is a young housing officer on a rough East London estate. His work is sometimes frustrating, but the tenants he tries to help - by turns exasperating, funny, heroically brave or dangerously hostile - can make it all worth while. Friendship and romance blossom too, in Ben Richards' exuberant, gripping first novel.
Ben Richards was born in 1964 and lives in London. He has taught Development Studies at the University of Birmingham and at University College, London. THROWING THE HOUSE OUT OF THE WINDOW won the Texaco/Eastside award for first-time novelists in 1994.
