The Story of a Father, His Son And The Bond Between Them!!
On the eve of his son's birth, reluctant father John Bryce goes to see "Goldeneye". As well as rekindling his boyhood fascination with James Bond, the film reminds Bryce of the pitiful discrepancies between 007's world and his own. "Where is my Aston Martin?", he thinks. "Where are the girls in bikinis, famous for one film only? Where is my Walther PPK, my hairy chest, my harpoon gun, my theme tune, my licence to kill? Where is my life?"
When his child is born with a serious heart defect, Bryce is forced into a heartbreaking situation where fantasy and reality clash. And in a partially autobiographical novel that transposes heartache, fatherhood, killing for the Establishment, S.M.E.R.S.H. and New Man, David Bowker writes about a father's struggle to feel what he cannot feel and face what he dare not face. Touching, honest and screamingly funny, 'From Stockport With Love' is guaranteed to leave you shaken and stirred...
