Attempting to touch on so much material in necessarily limited space means there is a modicum of personal anecdote included. I have redressed this situation by writing a second companion volume that is both memoir and diary: Omissions. It is currently on the desk of the original publishers where I am not optimistic about its future. In the end it was really an opportunity to get stuff off my chest and out of my head once and for all, I don’t want or need to revisit any of it.
Watch this space for further developments.
