Description
Joe Tucker's uncle Eric was a man of contradictions. He lived with his mother for almost eighty years, yet had a passion for the stage and a knack for comedy. His life was marked by a series of daily trips to the bookie, but also by a remarkable talent for painting. As Eric's family sorted through his hundreds of works, they began to ask questions about his life: why had he never left his mother's home, and what drove him to create so much art, yet share it so rarely. This touching and thought-provoking book brings Eric's extraordinary world into focus, and invites us to consider the nature of expression, the ownership of art, and the secret lives of those around us.
