review 1: Very moving and wistful. It is what Roger says between the lines that makes it so powerful. Through inference, letting his son know he is okay. Did Charles realise that at the time? Roger's knowledge and approval of sexuality and acceptance of humanity made one feel accepted as a reader - a reader privy to the domestic life of a family - such a privilege and that one must be grateful for. Thank you.
review 2: Loved this book. A warm and very amusing series of letters from a long suffering father to his feckless son over a thirty year period. The content is loving, gently chiding and at times frustrated, but there is a fantastic humour underpinning the whole endeavour. On hearing his son has been recommended to seek medical attention in hospital, father off... moreers the advice to wash his hands before presenting himself, as "you have the habit of displaying hands that look like you've been changing bus tyres in inclement weather." Not for everyone, but I found it absolutely delightful. less
