Biographie de l'auteur

The Author was born in 1939 in Stepney, East London at the outbreak of W.W.2. By the time he was 5 years old, a large part of his life had been spent, in air raid shelters. His father was a soldier, fi ghting in North Africa and returned home on crutches, having sustained leg injuries, he couldn't resume his job as a fruit buyer in Borough Market and was for some time unemployed, when, he was able to work, some years later, he could only get work as a labourer so money was very short. The story up until chapter 16 is based on fact, all that you read actually happened. The year of his birth plus names are the only fi ctitious entries. From chapter 16 onwards is how he would have liked his life to have turned out. However, the author has always been involved in music and now sings with an 18 piece big band and many other Jazz trio's and quartets.
