Description:
In this poignant memoir, noted South African playwright Athol Fugard pays tribute to two relatives who inspired him to write. His slightly older cousin Johnnie played the piano while Athol improvised accompanying words for performance pieces they called "musical stories." When his troubled cousin Garth Fugard confesses his homosexuality, Athol, realizing that he had already guessed this, had his "first experience of that most essential of all writers' faculties--intuition." The book also contains intriguing explications of the autobiographical elements in works from Blood Knot to Master Harold ... and the Boys.
