von Tony Parker

298 Seiten, Taschenbuch

Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

What was it that led a man to make lighthouse keeping his life's occupation - to select a monotonous, lonely job, which took him away from his family for months at a time, leaving him in a cramped, narrow tower with two other men not of his own choosing? Lighthouse keepers and their families opened their souls to Tony Parker, Britain's foremost oral historian and her most expert interviewer. With this revelatory portrait of a small community, living on the margins, he has given us an exceptional insight into both human nature and the British character.With an afterword by Bella Bathurst
