"This book is a vivid, powerful and moving account of the author's upbringing in the 1940s and 1950s in St Monans, a small fishing village on the east coast of Scotland. Rush returns decades later to rediscover an endless source of inspiration in his childhood memories, and to offer for the first time a frank account of how it was for him. Woven into the fabric of family life, village characters, church and school, he writes of folklore and fishing and the eternal power of the sea, the cycle of the seasons, the world of the imagination and the unknown, the archetypal problems of fathers and sons and mother love, and the inescapability of childhood influences far on into adult life."--BOOK JACKET.
