Summary

Dino is the boy who has the illicit party while his parents are absent; Jonathon has angst; Ben has the raunchy affair with the teacher; and Jackie won't let Dino have sex with her.

Doing It Summary

Doing It by Melvin Burgess

A much heralded, compelling sex story for teenage boys from this provocative writer. Melvin promised us all a 'knobby book for boys' during the astonishing publicity for Lady, his book that stripped all the sensibilities about sex from books for teenagers. This is it. Three teenage boys have a healthy interest in sex: Dino's girlfriend won't commit; Jonathon's biggest fan is very keen; and Ben gets embroiled with a predatory teacher. Put all these ingredients into an unsupervised teenage party, and allow to steam gently!
