Description

The Former Boy Wonder is a bittersweet comedy that takes a sidelong look at first love, fathers and sons, and fidelity. With an irresistible plot and an impeccable sense of place and time, Robert Graham asks if its ever too late to grow up.Its a rainy August in Manchester and music writer Peter Duffys life is falling apart. Hes knocking on fifty, his career is flatlining, his marriage is failing, and his teenage son barely speaks to him.And then a friend from university days invites him to a party at the manor house where he met his first love, the dazzling Sanchia Page. All the old gang are going to be there, and although its a long shot, maybe she will, too, which wouldnt be helpful. Or would it?Warm, funny and affecting. A pageturning delight. CAROLINE SMAILES, author of Mrs Van GoghI kept picturing lipstick traces on a cigarette and hearing latenight records, the kind you play to conjure up a golden age. This wonder boys song brings a romantics past to life on the page and reveals the secret fears behind it. JEFF YOUNG, Costa Award shortlisted author of Ghost TownA wonder of a novel JAMES RICE, author of Alice and the Fly
