Rambles with my Family

These are no ordinary rambles, and the family is no ordinary family. On the first page they trip innocently into a war zone and from there the story gathers pace as they flee from one hazard to the next. These perils do not end with the war as the family becomes nomadic, led by a headstrong intrepid father who is restless and driven. As his family ever more hopefully cling to dreams of normality, the story is by turns funny and tragic, quirky and poignant, but always compelling.

5.0 out of 5 stars A candid, brave and worthwhile book. BymacDuffon 21 September 2017 Do not be fooled by the first title word, this book is neither slow nor off the mark. It is a cracking good read and write, leaving the reader wanting more. The author is endowed with that rare gift of candour which invites her audience into a world both hilariously funny at times and tragic at others. One is left not only having felt it a privilege to have embarked on this journey through personal events written with such sensitivity and integrity, but also more aware of the wider historical and cultural background in which it sits.
