Description
David Baddiel's My Family: The Memoir is a searingly honest and hilarious exploration of his childhood and family. On the surface, his family life seemed ordinary, but beneath the surface, his mother's extraordinary past and his father's dementia reveal a complex and often humorous family dynamic. With a keen eye for detail, Baddiel recounts his mother's decades-long affair with a golfing memorabilia salesman, and the ways in which it shaped their household. As he navigates his family's history, Baddiel finds both comedy and poignancy, transforming dark experiences into something redemptive.
