About this product

Product Information

Stan Barstow was one of that striking group of young writers who sprang up independently, from the most unpromising soil - the industrial North and Midlands - in the late 1950s, their novels and the films subsequently made from them capturing the imagination of both the literati and the general public. In this memoir, with reflections on marriage, friendship, the nature of talent and the craft of writing, Barstow traces his personal journey from a collier's hearth to the distinction of translation into nine European languages, seeing his work read widely in schools and enjoying audiences of fourteen million viewers for his award-winning television scripts. 'I have known the intense satisfaction of giving pleasure to a great many people,' he says. 'It is what I want from my own reading - characters I can believe in and care about, bringing me a story in which they can reveal themselves. In My Own Good Time is my story, in the way I have chosen to tell it.'
