When Simon Carr’s wife Susie tragically loses her battle with cancer Simon is left to raise his five-year-old son Alexander on his own. Soon after his eleven-year-old son from a previous marriage Hugo comes to live with them too. All too quickly plumped-up cushions crisp beds and a drifting scent of rosemary from the kitchen are replaced with a floor piled high with video-games Lego and comics. While visiting mothers deem his parenting ’semi-feral’ Simon dryly retorts that his methods are simply ’free-range’.In this new all-male partnership Simon faces the challenges of parenthood unaided as father and sons alike learn to become a family again. Carr’s emotionally honest compellingly anarchic and sharply comic story of a single parent’s struggle is at once heartbreaking and wonderfully life-affirming.
