About this listen
In this clear and absorbing memoir, John Sam Jones writes of a life lived on the edge. It is story of journeys and realisation, of acceptance and joy. From a boyhood on the coast of Wales to a traumatic period studying at Aberystwyth, to a scholarship at Berkley in California as the AIDS epidemic began to take hold before returning to Liverpool and north Wales to work in community engagement and sexual health. A journey of becoming a writer and chronicler of his experiences with award-winning books and the desire to become a campaigner for LGBT rights in Wales. The adventure of running a guest house in Barmouth - where he eventually became Mayor - with his husband, a German academic, who he had married after a long partnership.
Three weeks after the European Referendum they put the business on the market and moved to Germany. John is still on that journey....

brilliant
loved hearing John Sam Jones tell his story of growing up gay in Wales and his story, moving, powerful, funny at times. I look forward to reading his other works.
