An enjoyable book. I do like a book written by the author, about themselves, that isn‘t necessarily an auto biography. I read this really because I‘m seeing the author at the TWells Literary Festival. I remember as well enjoying his selections on Desert Island Discs. This is a gem filled book and is very comforting.
