Please note A Tall Poppy is a short prequel to the forthcoming Our Factory, Our Father.
They are words, snippets, photographs and most importantly, copies of the vile letters my father sent to me during the last years of our relationship, one that at best, was troublesome. Every word written here is true and I would warn the readers that they contain disturbing images and words.
We decided to release this version to give people fair warning of what to expect in Our Factory, Our Father.
Thank you to all the kind, people who looked out for me as a small child, teenager and young man and saw, but didn’t point out what I couldn’t and that was that my father disliked me from birth. I got over it and you will see why I did in the very last page of this book.
