Description
Melvyn Bragg's first ever memoir is a poignant and introspective account of his childhood in post-war Cumbria, vividly evoking a bygone era. The book recreates his youth in a working-class town, where he navigated the challenges of adolescence and found solace in books.
Through his story, Bragg draws a rich portrait of a community-spirited northern town, the Lake District landscapes that inspired him, and the people who shaped his life. This is a charming and often moving account of a lost era, full of details and lyrical descriptions of people and places.
