The Tears of a Clown by Steve Wheeler

There is a saying that everyone has a book inside them. Some individuals might say that is exactly where it should stay, inside them. The Tears of a Clown has been bubbling away inside of me for quite a few years now and I think it's high time that the world should read it.

Although this book is set as a novel, the main character, Brian Wilson, is very much autobiographic. At least ninety per cent of the events and emotions portrayed are taken from my own experiences and recollections.

Brian was brought up in a household completely dominated by females. This book provides a candid view on the embarrassments and problems that this caused him. When he reaches fourteen years old, the problems at home and peer pressures reach fever pitch. Earth shattering events take place that will influence the rest of his life.
