The Golly in the Cupboard - Paperback
by Phil Frampton (Author)
First published in 2004, Frampton's fascinating childhood memoir was described as "a turning point in the emergence of Black British writing, comparable with James Baldwin's Going to Meet the Man. Born in the seaside village of St Agnes, Cornwall in 1953, Phil Frampton wanted to discover the reasons behind his abandonment as a child. For several decades he was unable to unravel the mysteries. Almost half a century on, Phil was finally allowed access to official records kept on him as a child. The book helped Phil unearth more information, adding dramatic twists, as revealed in this edition.
"... a gripping and very moving story, told with a wonderful skill... with a vivid memory for every incident and character, with all the dialogue and poignant detail...I eagerly await more volumes from the Frampton pen." Michael Crick, Author and Broadcaster "...heart-rending moments... a dispassionately told but piercingly emotional story."
