註釋
‘A beautiful book’ Zoë Ball
‘My father was an “ordinary man”, which of course means he was extraordinary.'
Be it as Nicky Hutchinson in
Our Friends In The North
, Maurice in
The A Word
, or his reinvention of
Doctor Who
, One man, in life and death, has accompanied Christopher Eccleston every step of the way – his father, Ronnie. In
I Love the Bones of You
, Eccleston unveils a vivid portrait of a relationship that has shaped his entire career trajectory – mirroring and defining his own highs and lows, from stage and screen triumph to breakdown, anorexia and self-doubt.
Eccleston describes how the tightening grip of dementia on his father slowly blinded him to his son’s existence, forcing a new and final chapter in their connection. Told with trademark honesty and openness,
I Love the Bones of You
is a celebration of those on whom the spotlight so rarely shines, as told by a man who found his voice in its glare. A love letter to one man, and a paean to many.
