The story traces Penny's relationship with the music scene from the turbulent political 1980s into the changing culture of the 21st century. Throughout these years, she never stops being a misfit, and the question remains: how do you navigate normal life when punk is dead and you don't know you're autistic?
Atypical Girl begins as a coming-of-age story and ends as a midlife reinvention. What unites them is a search for identity and the role that music plays in all our lives.

'Fabulous . . . it really captures a moment that resonates strongly with me' -- Andy McCluskey, Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark 'Penny Kiley's adventures in punk and post punk and beyond create a love letter to the narrative that has affected all our lives' -- John Robb 'Penny was a part of the furniture at Eric's, quietly observing, reporting and reviewing. If anyone can paint a true picture of those glorious days she can' -- Will Sergeant, Echo & The Bunnymen '99% of memoirs are scattered with lies. File Atypical Girl in the remaining 1%' -- Bill Drummond, Co-Founder of the KLF, Writer and Musician 'I love this book. I enjoyed every word, found many things that related directly to me and found it spoke to exactly my views on what punk means. It's also an incredible document of Liverpool' -- Rachel Talalay, Director of Tank Girl and Doctor Who 'A refreshingly feminine take on punk and the tribulations of growing up during an era that was psychologically and culturally disruptive . . . candour and a great deal of wit... loaded with charm' * Louder Than War *More details
