Description - The Reluctant Father by Phillip Toledano
When Phillip Toledano became a father it took him about a year and a half to fall in love with his daughter. He finally realised that she was the most bewitching human being he’d ever seen. Initially though things were different. The Reluctant Father follows Phillip’s journey at the beginning of fatherhood. From dismay and confusion, to the blinding light of unalloyed love. It’s a surprisingly frank, funny and moving account, and he hopes his daughter won’t hold it against him when she’s grown up.
In many ways, The Reluctant Father is a sequel to the best selling Days With My Father (2010), which documented the three years Phillip spent taking care of his father, who suffered from dementia. More than 1.4 million people visited the site that he set up for the project, over 200,000 comments were posted, and Toledano received several thousand emails. The book has since been translated into several langauages and the photographs have been widely exhibited worldwide.
