Description
Simon Dewhurst's memoir offers an intimate and fast-moving account of his privileged and eccentric upbringing in post-war England. With a light and airy style, he recounts a series of hilarious disasters and exploits that span family life, military service, education, and various careers.
The narrative glides seamlessly from one episode to the next, set against the varied backdrops of London, Scandinavia, North America, and Africa in the Swinging Sixties. Dewhurst writes with an incisive wit, sharing his thoughts on the state of the modern world with a good dose of humor.
This memoir is a candid and entertaining account of one man's life, free from moralizing or pretension. If you're looking for a humorous and engaging read, this book may be just what you're after.
