An Interrupted Life

For some time now I’ve been working on an autobiography. I’m doing it mainly for the sake of my descendants who, like most young people, don’t think of asking questions until it’s too late, partly because they’re too busy, partly for fear of being bored, but also I think for fear of finding it rather embarrassing.

However, being a writer by profession, I can’t do this job without thinking of it as a book, and books need readers.

During the last months I have been following the example of writers more famous than me, by serialising it in weekly chapters. I’m also recording it, in my own voice, and that takes a good deal of time and effort.

Good luck to you all. This has been a tough one for many, and it’s certain to change lives. I could have hoped that it might bring with it a serious improvement in the way our countries are governed but right now that just seems like pie in the sky.
