Daz 4 Zoe

first publication date:  1990
original title:  Daz 4 Zoe
original language:  English

Daz 4 Zoe is a young-adult novel by Robert Swindells. It follows the story of Zoe, a 'subbie' (from the suburbs of Silverdale) and Daz a 'chippy' (from the city of Rawhampton). It is a dual dialogue, with parts being written as if by Daz, and parts by Zoe. Daz's spelling is phonetic with appalling grammar, done by Swindells to show Daz's low quality of education. This contrasts with Zoe's more formal style. The novel discusses the microcosm of the 'chippies' and the 'subbies' in order to discuss the ridge between the bourgeoisie and the proletariat in a dystopian future where those living in cities do not have suffrage, and the elite suburb-dwellers control the nation.
