Description
An unnamed son visits his dying father, Louis, wanting answers to questions that have troubled him all his life. Who was his mother? Why was he raised by two fathers in 1950s Britain, when love between men had to be hidden? Louis takes his son on the journey of his life with Rob, through 1930s London, World War Two and beyond. A gripping and heart-warming romance and a meditation on the multiple meanings of parenthood.
Perfect for fans of William Boyd, Patrick Gale or Sebastian Faulks
