Sift is the memoir of writer and poet Lawrence Sail s formative years in post-war Exeter. Sail paints a wonderfully evocative picture of British life in the 1940s and 50s, while exploring the richness and bafflements of a child s life. Most families know the true history of time and chance the sift of who and what survives, what is spoken of or glossed over; the stubborn objects outliving their owners passion for them; the oddities of fashion; the co-editing of memory, forgetfulness and the need to forget… Praise for Sift: "A most compelling read the intensity of detail, the moments of drama, the sense of the post-war period and, above all, it is marvellously written." Penelope Lively "Sift is a brilliantly atmospheric recreation of a post-war childhood. Lawrence Sail explores the absence of his German artist father, his mother s determination to bring up her twin s singlehanded, and his own heritage in a memoir which is beautifully written, candid, funny and moving."
