Clinging to the Wreckage - the first part of John Mortimer's hilarious and moving autobiography 'A true masterpiece of the genre' The Times Here John Mortimer recounts his solitary childhood in the English countryside, with affectionate portraits of his remote parents - an increasingly unconventional barrister father, whose blindness must never be mentioned, battling earwigs in the mutinous garden, and a vague and endlessly patient mother. As a boy dreaming of a tap-dancing career on the stage and forming a one-boy communist cell at boarding school, his father pushes him to pursue the law, where Mortimer embarks on the career that was to inspire his hilarious and immortal literary creations. Told with great humour and touching honesty, this is a magnificent achievement by one of Britain's best-loved writers. It will delight readers of P.G. Wodehouse, Roald Dahl and fans of Rumpole. 'Enchantingly witty ...should be held as the model for all autobiographies of our times'Auberon Waugh
