My life measured out in tides, coming in and going out. My life measured out in games of trying to spot the sea first. My life measured out in the delicious and indulgent sadness that comes from leaving a holiday cottage for the last time and for the first time in several days it isnt raining, but at least the kids have had a great time and, lets face it, so have you.Warm and darkly funny, this sublimely crafted book transports you (in a blue Ford Zephyr, with an AA route map, a granny in the back and a bingo hall on the horizon) to the world of childhoods by the sea. Specifically, Ians memories of childhood: ones well all identify with endless sunny days on the beach, done to a turn fish and chips, legendary games of cricket, tea and cakes and family crammed into a tiny caravan, holiday cottages that live forever, buckets of shells, a busted fishing net and enough sand to make a beach, with the tide out, way outIn this nostalgic collection of reminiscences (with the odd poem thrown in) journey with Ian as he walks barefoot to the sea to see the sun rise. He is attacked by seagulls, and midges, and wasps. He eats a lot of fish and chips and its always the best yet. He nearly avoids a frisbee. He searches for jazz in Scarborough. He walks. He even tries to run. But mostly he savours the sea and our seaside moments and our seaside dreams.If you want a shot of salty sea air, a tussle with a seagull and the congenial companionship of someone described as relentlessly jolly (The Guardian), this will be a joyous and moving read....7061562My Sand Life, My Pebble Life190231https://www.gandhi.com.mx/my-sand-life--my-pebble-life-9781472983091/phttps://gandhi.vtexassets.com/arquivos/ids/7026986/image.jpg?v=638791864842970000InStockMXN99999DIAudiolibro2022Inglés
