Description
Rory Cellan-Jones's memoir is a moving exploration of his isolated childhood and absent father, a story that only came to light after his mother's death. A previously unknown file, labelled 'For Rory', revealed the truth behind his parents' brief love affair and the restrictive forces of post-war respectability that ended it. This is a compelling account of what Rory uncovered in the papers, letters and diaries, evoking the progressive, centrifugal force at the centre of his life - the BBC itself.
