Total copies: 2
When his widowed father - once a high court judge and always a formidable figure - drifted into vagueness if not dementia, Adam Mars-Jones took responsibility for his care. Intimately trapped in the London flat where the family had always lived, the two men entered an oblique new stage in their relationship. An entertaining reflection on families, the legal profession, and the vexed question of Welsh identity, 'Kid Gloves' is also necessarily a book about the writer himself and the implausible, long-delayed moment when he told his sexually conservative father about his own orientation.
