- Yardie_(novel) abstract "Yardie was the first novel by Jamaican-born British writer Victor Headley, published in London in 1992 by Dotun Adebayo's X Press. As described by Goodreads: \"Yardie is, quite simply, a literary sensation in England. Originally published by X Press, a two-man operation, the book was produced on a desktop computer and distributed through unusual channels: it was sold at clothing shops, hairdressers, and even on top of over-turned dumpsters outside of nightclubs. On word of mouth alone, Yardie has sold over twelve thousand copies.\"The novel borrows its title from yardie, a term stemming from the slang name originally given to occupants of \"government yards\"—social housing projects with very basic amenities, and is based on the fictional story a young Jamaican's rise from the streets of London to the top of the drug-dealing underworld, .".
