'The Children of Lovers are Orphans.' Proverb Bestselling novelist,
author of Lord of the Flies, William Golding was a famously acute
observer of children. What was it like to be his daughter? In this
frank and engaging family memoir, Judy Golding recalls growing up
with a brilliant, loving, sometimes difficult parent. The years of
her childhood and adolescence saw her father change from an
impecunious schoolteacher to a famous novelist. Once adult, she
came to understand some of the internal conflicts which led to his
writing. The Golding family life, both ordinary and extraordinary,
always kept its characteristic warmth, humour, complexity, anger
and love, danger and insecurity. This is a book about family and
parents, about lovers and their children, and about our impact on
one another - for good or ill.
