Hanif Kureishis literary memoir explores his relationship with his father a failed writer. Kurieshi is of course hugely successful... Esquire Amongst a batch of papers Hanif Kureishi discovered an abandoned manuscript - a novel written by his father. And so begins a journey which takes him through his fathers childhood by the sea in India to an adult life in the suburbs of Bromley. My Ear at His Heart offers remarkable insight into Hanif Kureishis literary calling coming from the ashes of his fathers own attempts years before. This is an ambitious book. Kureshi - free-associating with what feels like unmitigated honesty - successfully conveys the impression that in this book he has actually given us himself. Sunday Times Deeply involving highly intelligent and in what it doesnt say rather than what it does profoundly sad. Evening Standard I dont think he has done anything as good in any medium as this moving and fiercely honest book. Guardian
