Ash on a Young Man's Sleeve | Dannie Abse
Widely acclaimed for its warm humour, lyricism and honesty, as well as its accurate evocation of the thirties, 'Ash on a Young Man's Sleeve' has become a sung-after classic. In this delightful autobiographical novel, Dannie Abse skilfully interweaves public and private themes, setting the fortunes of a Jewish family in Wales against the troubled backcloth of the times- unemployment, the rise of Hitler and Mussolini, and the Spanish Civil War. First published in 1954.
