So I love to read autobiographies, and when I say this one I of coarse dowloaded it. Larkin has a very good grasp of the english language, and, "technically" knows how to write a story, but, knowing how to write and arrange a story and actually writting one that is any good are two diffrent things. There is no heart to it. It has no true feeling, no soul. A good autobiography grips you and has a "wow factor". This however has non of that. It's boring and forgetable and Larkin as of the time I am writing this is only one chapter into his autobiography. He tries to get you to believe that he was some kind of wild child that couldn't be tamed and his parents sufferd through his craziness as a child, and that his teachers also barely could psychologically handle is rebellious ways. It's all just fluff though and REALLY boring. This is however just my opinion.
