The second youngest of 10 children, Ivor Knight remembers little home life. By the age of two his mother was dead; by the age of five he was a Ward of the State. Forcibly separated from his family, isolated and alone, his childhood and adolescence were filled with torment - years of physical, emotional and sexual abuse. Simply yet powerfully told, Ivor Knight's story recreates in moving detail his experience of growing up with the Christian Brothers. His survival against the odds stands as a testament to his formidable strength of character and indomitable spirit.
