Follow the incredible 'Almost True Story' Harry Chambers has a dream to live and work in America but first he must wake up from his living nightmare and claw his way out of the clutches of his family. By day he is a successful and well liked Teaching Assistant who dabbles in amateur theatre too. When he gets home, however, his Aunt treats him like her slave and mentally torments him into submitting to her every whim. Things go from bad to worse when she moves in his evil and controlling sister and his hapless father. They move him out of his own room and dump all his possessions in the cellar where he is now forced to sleep and treat the house like a pig stye. Harry is at breaking point when an offer comes his way. It's the chance he's been hoping for; to live out his dreams in the United States. As things draw closer, he starts to regret his decision by pinning his families behaviour on himself and starts to feel sorry for them and making excuses for how they have been treating him.
"Harry Chambers & Peterloo Poets celebrates a press which, in the 37 years of its existence, has made an impact on contemporary poetry out of all proportion to its apparently modest scale. This is entirely due to one man, Harry Chambers, whose energy, managerial know-how, editorial skills, and unfailingly shrewd eye for good - and often unfashionable - poetry have made the books he has published under the imprint of Peterloo Poets a byword for quality both of production and content." --Book Jacket.
