An Insignificant Boy' is a moving, poetic, evocative tale of a lost boyhood – beautiful and funny, yet also horrifying and strange. But ultimately, it is uplifting and full of hope.
A secretive father is haunted by the atomic bomb. An ageing mother dreams of escape. Born into the Space Age of Bowie, astronauts, and future visions, Clix is an isolated, imaginative child, growing up in a house full of ghosts, daydreams, mystery, and dark secrets. A boy who, aged just eight, builds a transmitter – from a broken radio and an old umbrella – to ask for help. But there's a twist: every word of this unique tale is true. It is the final broadcast of Radio Clix.
• An inspiring real-life tale of how an unusual boy overcame trauma, horrific childhood abuse, and depression.
• An example to anyone who is struggling in life or has been made to feel ‘different’. As the narrator Clix says, “I am kintsugi: broken, but held together with gold." (Clix was the author's childhood nickname.)
• This new version of 'An Insignificant Boy' is a brand new text: the writer's preferred version, featuring new chapters, plus other additions and later revisions not included in the first edition. As such, it is the definitive 'director's cut' of the book.
