* Film tie-in starring Colin Firth, Jim Broadbent, Juliet StevensonRelease Autumn 2007 * 'A painful, funny, frightening, moving, marvellous book... everybody should read it' Nick Hornby * 'Tender, honest, angry, loyal, this extraordinary book balances the life, illness and death of a forceful father with the feelings of his independent son' The Times * 'This luminous tribute to a beloved dad made me laugh until I cried and cry till my nostrils were raw. A masterpiece - one of those books that you treasure forever' Val Hennessy * 'A marvellous piece of family literature. He says much about death and dying and more about life and living.
