Description
Summary: | British novelist Michael Frayn travels the familiar territory of the father-son relationship. The elder Frayn was a self-made man. The younger Frayn serves up a detailed account of his father's early years. The younger Frayn sees himself as slow-witted, unathletic, and sorely lacking in social skills, but he still managed to make his way to Cambridge and enjoy success in the world of words.
