Synopsis The Rushden Years by : Steven Bennett

This book is a brief memory of my life between the years 1975 and 1995 in Rushden, Northamptonshire. It is open and frank and talks about the happiness and the heartbreak during this time. Life can make you feel great and it can make you feel dejected and miserable. Like most people I have had plenty of both in my life. In some parts of the book it felt like life wasn't worth living but fortunately we can climb back up and start again. When the same thing happened again, I wondered how I'd be able to go on? This is the second book about my life, the first one From Zero to Eighteen in Hayes, is about my childhood and how things were back then in Hayes, West London.
