For its author the real reason for this full to the brim
autobiography stretches back through the decades to one specially
remembered day in his young teenage years when he was persuaded to
appear in a bible class presentation of a St Francis of Assisi play
as Brother Juniper. And then to the ignominy in his own mind, at
least, of having to kneel before his best friend who just happened
to be cast as St Francis only to be told by him and to the
enthralled audience: "God made a great fool when he made thee
Brother Juniper " In no way, of course, could that careless remark
be described as insulting to all present at the performance. Maybe
though to the character itself perhaps, but most certainly not to
its portrayer who at that time merely happened to be a vulnerable,
sensitive teenager. Immediately casting aside the experience for
ever from his memory would perhaps have been the sensible course.
Who knows what life with bring at that age anyway? Instead, it has
constantly remained lurking at the back of his memory throughout a
long working life full of twists and turns, sad times, good times,
modest achievements and yes, three marriages as well for extra
measure. Still asking himself though whether or not throughout it
all he has unknowingly been a type-cast of Brother Juniper. Now, at
83, and with the autobiography published, he is waiting for the
verdict of its readers. Clearly they will have much to assess about
the author's many-sided life in doing so
