Missed the goal
While i sympathize with Calum Best for having had an alcoholic father, there were times when reading his story that I felt like going and having a drink myself to get away from his whinging . The book seemed ,page after page , to repeat the scenario ; Calum was over-excited waiting to see George, George arrived, was drunk and behaved nastily, Calum wept with disapointment. Aged thirteen, he is still weeping. I suppose I hoped to read more anecdotes about how Calum's own defiance, humour, and rebellion helped him survive the abuse that an alcoholic dished out, and how it shaped who he became.

pleasing.
Simple minimalist functional no glitzy bits and aesthetically pleasing.

Deliciously sombre
Absolutely fascinating study of how 6 famous authors faced their last few weeks /days on earth.
So interesting along the way, too- for example to learn that Sigmund Freud had mouth cancer but refused to stop smoking and refused pain killers right to the end.
In the chapter on Maurice Sendak Roife describes his childhood experiences and relates them to the strange art in 'The Night Kitchen' or 'Where the Wild Things Are'.
Fascinating and well researched. A lovely book
