The Times of Melvyn Bragg : Bio, Unofficial & Crisp, Made For Fast Read: Acclaimed Personalities, #23

By Natasha Tristan

The Second World War from 1939 to 1945 is a page of history that no one can forget. It was an incident that shook the whole world. Its remnants took years to fade. One aspect of that multi-faceted war affected Cumbria (Cumberland) in England and the small town of Carlisle. Melvyn Bragg was born in Wigton a month after the war when the horror sowed its seeds.

 

Bragg, who was born during that war, a war with different faces, was also a versatile person. He excelled as a host, author, broadcaster, scriptwriter, etc. He has added autobiographical elements in many works to beautify his role as an author. His works like 'Grace and Mary' and 'Soldier's Return' are just two examples of that.

 

This book shows how much he shone in those fields. Since his father, Stanley Bragg, was at war, Melvyn became very close to his mother, Mary Ethel Bragg. Therefore, the demise of his mother left him mentally paralyzed. This book will show you how much that pain is rooted in him. This will give readers an idea of how WWII affected his hometown of Cumbria, Carlisle. Read a fragment of a long chapter of WW2, and also go through the bond of a versatile child and mother.
