Young urbanites in Vienna who spend most of their leisure time in public neighborhood parks come forward in this study. Their daily lives and their fragmented prospects are shown. The book develops a general view on growing up in cities into an in-depth representation of youth. Music as a medium of expression and resistance forms the bass-line of the study.
