Full Description
'Memories they may be but that does not make them true ...'
A man looks back on his life so far, and finds he can chart each moment by the presence of one of his cats. Old friends at a twenty-year reunion confidently tell different versions of the same stories. A boy remembers playing with lead farmyard animals. While in another time, a soldier at Troy tries to explain a very dubious battle plan.
We all treasure our memories, but how real are they?
Brilliant, funny and sometimes evoking Michael Bartlett's life and long career in radio and television, each of the people within these pages has a story to tell ...
Filled with warmth and charm, this short story collection is the comfort of a hug and a surprising exploration of the past we treasure
