The 20th anniversary edition of the multi-million copy bestseller! ‘Wistful, touching and funny’ Mail on Sunday ‘Hilarious and tear-jerking in turns’ Express ‘A sharp, witty and wise book straight from the heart’ Daily Mail

Harry Silver has it all. A successful job in TV, a gorgeous wife, a lovely child. But in one moment of madness, he chucks it all away.

A modern classic, Man and Boy is a hilarious and touching novel about how Harry comes to terms with his life, brings up his son alone and, gradually, learns what words like love and family really mean.
