Kevin Ireland looks back - for the third time
Listen now
Description
Writer Kevin Ireland has already written two memoirs - Under the bridge and over the moon, followed by Backwards to forwards. Now in his 90th year, Kevin tried an unpredictable experiment for his third memoir. He rummaged through half-forgotten moments in his life each day for 30 days and wrote them down. He found himself thinking about his first date - aged 8 - fishing in Southland, moments from his years living in London and the first time he saw a five pound note. He called it A month at the back of my brain, and Lynn Freeman was intrigued by the stories behind some of Kevin's poems. A month at the back of my brain, Kevin Ireland's third memoir is a Quentin Wilson Publishing publication.
