Ash on a Young Man's Sleeve (Library of Wales) - Softcover
Widely acclaimed for its warm humor, lyricism, and honesty, this accurate evocation of the 1930s has become a classic. In this delightful autobiographical novel, Dannie Abse skilfully interweaves public and private themes, setting the fortunes of a Jewish family in Wales against the troubled backdrop of the times: unemployment, the rise of Hitler and Mussolini, and the Spanish Civil War.

Review:
'Acutely remembered, imaginatively told. Readers will be fascinated to catch the true ring of the 'thirties...a clever, moving evocation.'
