Synopsis "The Parents in Rhymes: Their Life, Death and Times (in English)"
This is an un-conventional story of love and abuse, a double biography and a social history. Compelled to write following the death of his mother and father Julian Bowman chose rhyming couplets, in recognition of his parents' remarkable interdependency - and as an act of protest against his father, a poet who hated rhyme. This epic story is told chronologically, from tough childhoods and murky pasts in the East End of London in the 1930s, to evacuation in 1940 and sexual abuse in the post-war years; from falling in love amidst rationing and the rising welfare state in the 1950s, to building an ideal nuclear family in suburbia in the 1960s; from hidden abuse and traumas in the 1970s to disturbing revelations, crisis and collapse in the 1980s; from reinvention and reconnection in the 1990s to creativity and final adventures in the 2000s - and on to final deterioration, hauntings and death in the 2010s.
