Description

"But was music his life? If so, it was because of the man in the red dressing gown, years before, when John was eight years old." 'This coming-of- age tale follows childhood friends, John and Martin, from their youth to adulthood as they grow up in the industrial city of Porterfield, Britain, during the post-World War II eras of the 1950s and 1960s...John's "ordinary" persona is shy, intelligent, musically disposed, and exudes a serious approach to establishing himself as a musician...But, on the other end of the spectrum is Martin, whose "special" persona is charismatic, intelligent, precocious and exudes a lax approach to his path in life... While John works diligently to become rooted in the world as a classical musician, Martin easily flits, from being an evangelist to a faith healer to the legal field...
