My review of the original book is on this blog. I can tell you the story told by Julian’s grandmere within Julian’s chapter, will melt your heart. I don’t want to ruin it for you but it deals with acknowledging responsibility, with parental guidance, with great teachers, with remorse, and with the humanity of it all.ĭoes a mistake define your life for ever? Julian is about to find out and so are you.ĭon’t just read Julian’s chapter do yourself a favour and read the book again. Julian now tells his story in a 99 page chapter inserted at the end of the original book and I can tell you it is outstanding and makes for compulsive reading. Nor could his parents.Īugust didn’t want to go back to school, but his brilliant parents made him go back and the book is just wonderful as we share his first year in school. Tottenham Hotspur are no longer considering Julian Nagelsmann to be the club’s next permanent manager. And whats more he thought it was a laugh, he couldn’t see that he was at fault in any way. If you touched August you had 30 seconds to wash your hands or you died. he called him names, sent him horrible notes, generally bullied him and started off a game called Plague. All of these people told their story of August in the first publication. When he goes to school for the first time he evokes a number of reactions from children and adults. His face looks like it has been melted onto his head. It tells the story of 12 year old August who suffers from severe facial disfigurement that many people find horrifying.
