About this listen
Michael Harding was twenty three when his father died; a parent who was sometimes distant and aloof, yet had a profound effect on the writer's life.
In the summer of 2023, Harding took a short holiday in Spain, walking the Camino de Santiago, during which he began to unpack the long ago trauma of losing a father he never really knew, and, in the end, finding a father he never doubted.
In this new book, he examines how the parent shapes the child, and how the child, in turn, becomes a parent in the search for that which makes us whole - love.
Praise for Michael Harding's writing:
'A beautiful book of great tenderness and wisdom' Joseph O'Connor
'I read this book in one sitting ... it held me and wouldn't let go' Mary McEvoy
'Wonderful' John Boyne
'Hilarious, and tender, and mad, and harrowing, and wistful, and always beautifully written' Kevin Barry
'Extraordinary' Deirdre Purcell©2024 Michael Harding
Critic Reviews
Harding's prose style is fluid and fluent, like running water, simultaneously airy and earthy ... unflinching, merciless honesty
