Sobre IBD

This is an autobiography with a difference. Andrew Godsell plays the roles of writer, family man, public servant, political activist, minor television personality, and English eccentric. Communicating his enthusiasm for story-telling, the author visits John Noakes, discusses football with Bryan Robson, shakes hands with Ed Miliband, and out-wits Anne Robinson on Weakest Link. Amidst a struggle with Obsessive Compulsive Disorder, the moments of success are as beautiful, and fragile, as the life of a butterfly.
