Synopsis

It can be hard to love the people we should love; sometimes objects of affection are easier. This issue includes Jonathan Taylor's frank and bitterly funny account of a boyhood spent caring for a father with Parkinson's Disease ('Who are you?'), Jeremy Seabrook on the twin brother he hardly knew, and Sean Wilsey on his devotion to bicycles.
