He does not know where he is.
But he knows the games.

What if the mind, in losing itself, returned to the place where it was most alive?

In The Mind Of A Child's Playground is a novel unlike anything I have written. A story from family experince told entirely from within, where confusion becomes a childhood game, familiar faces drift in and out of focus, and one presence remains constant through all of it.

Watching our father move through this condition. The voice shifts as the story deepens, flowing and grounded at first, fragmenting as the condition takes hold, so that the form of the book mirrors the experience it is describing.

Readers who have gone through this with someone they love will recognise things on every page. And readers who haven't will come away understanding something they couldn't have found any other way.

This is not a sad book, though it will move you. It is, at its heart, a book about love. About the kind that doesn't live in names. About the hand that never lets go.
