A powerful and moving autobiography from a gifted writer who has been compared to Joyce and Yeats.
'A book of sheer wonder. As an author he competes as an equal with the ablest of them' DAILY EXPRESS
This is the story of Joseph Meehan, born cruelly handicapped and known to the world as 'the crippled boy'. Filled with insight into the soul inside a broken body and warm with the beauties of the Irish landscape it is the story of Joseph's fight to escape the restrictions and confines of his existence.

Christopher Nolan, born in Mullingar, Ireland, was a poet and author. His works include the classic UNDER THE EYE OF THE CLOCK, THE BANYAN TREE and the collection of poetry, DAM-BURST OF DREAMS. He died in 2009 aged 43.
