5.0 out of 5 stars Impossible to put down!, 17 April 2000
By A Customer
This book is a real eye opener. During the 1960s, Terry and his brother lurch from one episode to another, growing up in a miserable cold home where their dad often lies comatose on the sofa while mum is drunk and vicious. From suicide attempts to violent fights, here it all is in black and white, vividly brought to life. Whether they are living in the Gorbals in Glasgow or rural Surrey, it makes no difference to what these boys endure. But even though the subject matter is sad (and it does make you cry) there are lots of funny things too and that's what we liked about the book. Also the ending is quite up beat - you feel there is still hope for kids who have suffered. It was absolutely impossible to put down. Give it a go! If you've got kids and like a drink, read this book first!

5.0 out of 5 stars Superb. A one sitting read, 8 Aug 2009
By Book Reader "Book Reader 1" (Glasgow UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I cannot recommend this book enough. I hadn't heard of the author, but was lent the book by a friend. Alcoholism is an issue I can identify with and I found this book to be a convincing, powerful and gripping read. The penmanship flows throughout creating emotional attachments to the two poor suffering boys, although the authors use of humour lightens the mood in some otherwise dark moments. There are some very funny moments and overall a book which you can't put down and could read in one sitting. Roll on some more books from Sally Whiteside.
