    • Paul Jennings' gentle, humorous, autobiography weaves together the characters and events that formed the author of Round the Twist, the 'Un' series and the Different trio of novellas recently published by Old Barn Books. From dyslexic child immigrant and high school dropout to award-winning teacher and Concorde-travelling author, Paul looks back and unpicks both his life and his writing, reflecting on moments of hubris as he confronts his glass-fronted collection of classic cars and his marriage failure. Raw and revealing, in Untwisted Jennings has crafted both a quirky, compelling, narrative and a how-to for students of creative writing and of life.
