Review
"'A fascinating double-take on the experience of being fathered and then becoming a father yourself - eight short tales full of wit, pathos and insight.' - Blake Morrison 'This collection of meditations on the nature of fatherhood by writers unafraid to explore their true emotions is a must-read for anyone interested in the strange mysteries of the human heart.' - Joolz Denby 'Brilliantly written and incredibly moving.' - The Western Mail"
Product Description
When four men took to the road to talk about their relationship with their fathers, they were unprepared for the level of emotional engagement that poured from the audience. Hearing stories about fathers had uncovered a deep seam of hidden feelings and forgotten memories, suggesting that there is perhaps no man with more significance in our life than our own father. Here, four sons reveal the bonds that exist between themselves and their very different fathers; they then turn the tables and consider their own roles as fathers and father figures. These tender and heart warming tales mix memoir with fiction and provide a perfect backdrop to reflect on this most important relationship. "Four Fathers" features stories from Ray French, James Nash, Tom Palmer and John Siddique.
