I'm not a Manc nor a second-generation immigrant but I am a fellow football fanatic and also religious, so I could relate to a lot of things in this memoir. It's funny and searingly honest. I never thought listening to someone talk about playing the balalaika as a kid could be so captivating. Some people's lives could be so uniquely memorable. It does mostly focus on Noz's childhood (pre-A levels) and I'm just curious how he's changed in adulthood (as someone in their early 20s, insight into other people's experience at that age can be valuable), but I guess that's why this is a memoir not autobiography.
Glad they had a Northerner voice the audiobook, even though his Arabic pronunciation sounded a bit awkward (to me).
