This is a varied and intelligent collection of anecdotal stories regarding people in the margins, the concept of borders, diaspora, politics and Welsh culture, and also the whole process of the art of writing itself.
The authors voice shines through at all times in these very honest descriptions of people he has known or met briefly, lived alongside, and who have shared his creativity.
He captures well the writers need to diversify in paid work in order to accomplish a regular writing life. Anyone interested in the reality of a working writers life could learn much from his candid, lively accounts.
Clare Maynard
