The Crown of Wisdom follows the extraordinary journey of Wisdom, a boy with psychic abilities discovered alone in an ancient forest. Raised in a bustling modern world, he excels academically but succumbs to the vices of gambling and addiction, losing touch with his inner light. At his lowest, Wisdom encounters Ravi, a mysterious teacher who introduces him to the chakras, particularly the Crown Chakra, the gateway to universal consciousness.

It was the long hot summer of 1979 in London, and Michael Berlin is 15, a skater, wild, adrift and out of control. With school over, he lands his dream job at Skateboard Kingdom and wastes no time getting in over his head. He and his friends rush toward a summer of youthful excess played out against a soundtrack of Bowie and Blondie in the shadow of Thatcher coming to power in a country on the brink. With humour and heart, he recounts his bad-boy antics and the resilience and refuge that intense male friendships can provide.
