By Edmund Gosse, adapted by Nick Warburton
A frank memoir of a Victorian childhood first published in 1907 and subtitled 'a study of two temperaments'.
'Faith is like love; it does not let itself be forced.'
Edmund Gosse was raised in the strictly non-conformist Plymouth Brethren. Tender, comic and lyrical, this is his account of a spiritual struggle.
Lonely Edmund is baptised at the age of ten. But as he grows, he’s torn between love for his devout charismatic father and the terrible secret in his heart.
