Description
Alan Davies's memoir is a deeply personal and affecting story about a life built on sand. With vivid insight and devastating humour, he recalls his boyhood and his journey through adolescence, sharing his experiences of sibling dynamics, school, and sexuality with spectacular accuracy.
Through his story, Davies moves poignantly from innocence to experience, always with a keen sense of the absurd. He shares exquisitely tender recollections of his childhood, including the loss of his mother at six years old, and the pain of his lifelong grief and profound betrayal. This is a testament to a survivor's resilience and courage.
