A father’s humorous and heartfelt advice to his rebellious son. Nostalgic, witty, and original, Dear Lupin by Roger Mortimer and Charlie Mortimer tracks the entire correspondence between a father and his only son.
“Roger Mortimer’s often hilarious, sometimes touching, always generous letters to his son, Charlie, are packed with crisp anecdotes and sharp observations.
The trials and tribulations of Charlie’s youth and adulthood are received by his father with both humour and resignation – the perfect reminder of a time when letters were more common, yet always special, and the generation gap yawned as wide as ever.
Spanning nearly twenty-five years, Dear Lupin… is the correspondence of a father to his only son. These letters form a memoir of their relationship, an affectionate portrait of a time gone by.”
