About this product

Product Information

This is Toby Dyer's autobiography, an account of his life from conception to marriage, from the moment he was thrust into the arms of his sceptical parents to the time he leaves them. All the usual experiences of childhood and youth, such as school, new friendships, growing awareness, if not understanding, of the opposite sex, first date, first job and first serious romance, are described. He also writes about the family's wanderings along the lanes of Wiltshire and Somerset, owing to his father's inability to hold down a job as a farm labourer. His mother is long-suffering and the creator of a stream of culinary disasters. His father is crude, belligerent and an endless source of embarrassment to his only son. He does have redeeming features: he refuses to kow-tow to authority and is invariably the life and soul of the party. For example, he is in his element when performing his repertoire of ribald songs to the accompaniment of his trusty gobbo (mouth organ). These are perhaps not assets readily appreciated by a self-conscious boy but one detects more than a touch of the father in the son by the story's close.
