The day that his father, Laurence Olivier, died marked a crisis point in Richard Olivier's life. Unable to grieve, he was bewildered by his alienation from the sympathy and support of family and friends. But gradually his involvement with the British Men's Movement helped him adjust from that isolation to a fuller expression of his grief, the beginning of a process of self-exploration that has changed his life. This book is both a memoir of Olivier's often complex relationship with his father and an accessible account of the Movement. In it, Richard Olivier demystifies that movement, explaining what has often been seen as the confusing approach of its American founders in a way that should appeal to newcomers and sceptics alike.
