The much loved Scots actor Bill Paterson was brought up in those halcyon days of post-war Britain when a child could still play happily—and safely—in his own backyard and the streets beyond. Now he evokes his boyhood and youth in Glasgow"s East End during the 1950s, full of intriguing characters and extraordinary events. Always eager to push the boundaries of what they were allowed to do, Bill and his mates construct a giant dust "atomic" bomb, try to hold their own World Cup tournament, and play endlessly on wasteland that"s now unrecognizable from the exciting jungle of his childhood. Tales from the Back Green is not only a brilliant realization of a time and a place, but a classic memoir of childhood that will strike a chord with everyone who"s ever played and dreamed of life "when I grow up."
