an odd boy by Doc Togden : seeking pre-publication reviewers

Volume One of an odd boy, by Doc Togden is now being prepared for publication. Although that means, in practice, that there will still be a few months before the book is launched, we are seeking pre-publication reviews and endorsements, so that we have a good number of commentaries on the book before it is launched. A pre-publication review copy should be available by the beginning of March.

Volume one of an odd boy is a memoire of an eccentric aficionado of Bach and Blues, poetry and painting. A portrait of the artist as a lad, set in the experimental cultural ferment of the late 1960s. It is a coming-of-age adventure, both surreal and innocent, humorous and poignant, depicting an era when the Arts set a generation’s imagination on fire. The author’s life is a rare roulette wheel of childhood wonder and tragic debacles; a debilitating stammer and a powerful singing voice; bad luck and fierce good fortune. At 16 he’s traveled far in human experience from the midnight expedition he made to the crossroads at the age of 12.
