Not the perfect preparation for a writer but being a storyteller, it seemed natural that he wanted to write. Clinging is his third book (which was his second book completed) and is a forerunner to Bibighar, set to be published soon.Bruce has become more able to spend time writing following a severe spinal injury that has limited his movement in recent years.Clinging is set in a very different place and time, the early 1800s, starting in England. It follows a lower socio-economic family with no real prospects. An alcoholic father and the death of their mother and younger sister sees the three brothers separated. George ends up in an orphanage and the real story begins.Clinging is based on an actual family though the names have been changed in respect of living family members. Bruce hopes you will enjoy Clinging.view less
