Description
Born at the end of the 1950s in South London, Martin Knight's life story is one of nostalgia and everyday experience. In Broken Wafers, he recounts his childhood on a council estate during a time of significant change in Britain.
As the country emerged from post-war austerity, Knight charts a period of gradual transformation, marked by innovations such as the refrigerator, telephone, colour television, and hormones. His story is one of multi-racial family life, with all its attendant joys and challenges.
This unashamedly nostalgic memoir offers a unique perspective on a pivotal moment in British history, inviting readers to share in Knight's memories of a bygone era.
