The Testimony of Talieson Jones is a lyrical and acutely perceptive comingofage tale about faith, doubt and growing up, from Rhidian Brook, the accalimed author of The Aftermath.Taliesin Jones is a boy on the brink of adulthood, faced for the first time with life's biggest questions.Taliesin's life is falling apart: his mother has run off with her hairdresser, his father's temper is out of control and his brother has been ominously mute for weeks. Even more distressing than Taliesin's dysfunctional family are his classmates' claims that God does not exist. Deeply troubled by life's uncertainty, the boy seeks answers in the unlikely figure of Billy Evans, an old man with an exceptional possibly even miraculous talent.The Testimony of Taliesin Jones is an extraordinary novel, exploring the space between childhood and adulthood, between belief and doubt.'A beautiful meditation on childhood... and a panacea for a cynical age' The Times'A rare, beautiful evocation of childhood, faith and hope. Extraordinary. I utterly believed it' Victoria Hislop, author of The Island'Brook's debut is one of quiet miracles . . . in the marvellous way he is able to convince us of the power of faith' Sunday Times'Poetic' GuardianRhidian Brook is an awardwinning writer of fiction, television drama and film.
