GOALKEEPER: Memoir of Poet Peter Street (Games, Secrets, Epilepsy & Love)

Autor Peter Street Editat de N.E. McMorran Cuvânt înainte de Lorraine Worsley-Carter MBE DL
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 3 oct 2021
One 'alone, but not lonely' boy's triumph over adversity, motivated by his dream of becoming a professional footballer and a longing for truth and connection. Street's childhood memoir is a sensitive and honest portrayal, through a poetic autistic lens, of growing up with learning differences and epilepsy in an unconventional family during the 1950s and 60s. A unique and vivid social document of the period, highlighting much of the discrimination still faced by minority and disabled communities today.
