A Solitary Confinement by Robin Sheppard
Website – More about ‘A Solitary Confinement
Robin Sheppard had always seemed like a lucky guy! Proud father of two sons in their late teens, Sam the eldest (the musical one) and Charlie (the artistic one); still good friends with his first wife Georgina known always as George and partnered by the effervescent and indomitable Suzanne known by all as Suzi; when his hitherto contented life took a different turn.
A Solitary Confinement is the inspirational story of Robin’s encounter with Guillain-Barre syndrome.
[Video] Robin talks to Tina Bettison about Guillain-Barre syndrome and his book.
“It’s a great read, sad and funny. The piquancy of the humour sits right up there with Tony Hancock in the Blood Donor when he asked for a badge to be inscribed, ‘nothing pretentious, just they gave that others might live’……”
Andrew Mourant, ‘The Independent’
“Magnificent, he ought to change jobs, retire somewhere gorgeous and just carry on writing …”
