What I am writing, what I am saying, does not answer to the standards of literature, but to those of necessity and desperation, to the standard of fire.Who Killed My Father is a fascinating insight into the life of douard Louis?s father, which urgently and brilliantly engages with issues surrounding masculinity, class, homophobia, shame and social poverty. It explores the key moments and difficulties in their father-son relationship, and reconstructs the man he was and is today. The book unflinchingly takes aim at governments whose policies disadvantage those they seek to exclude – those like Louis?s father who have their expectations, hopes and passions crushed by a society which gives them little thought.
