“Fostered and lost, Brenton Brown meets his long lost mother, he has an incestual relationship with his half sister.
I enjoyed his raw style and the black London dialogue.
Met the author who is very interesting, this is almost a biog in parts and based on some truths (not him with incest though!). Alex got involved with some bad drug lords, jailed for something that happened during the Brixton Riots of 1980’s, discovered the joy of reading in prison, now has an OBE for services to literature.
I should read the follow up novel Brenton Brown sometime.
