Raised in a Southern Ontario town in the '50s and '60s, Thomas is abandoned to the care of his eccentric Trinidadian grandmother. Then, at ten, his mother reclaims him, taking him to the once-splendid Victorian home of a gentle conjurer whose love of science and the imagination becomes an important legacy.\u003cbr\u003e     But is he Thomas' father? Moving and wryly humorous, \u003ci\u003eChildhood\u003c\/i\u003e tells the story of a man's quest for what is lost, bringing him closer to the truth about himself.","brand":"McClelland \u0026 Stewart","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48392088191231,"sku":"9780771045165","price":17.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0452\/0886\/2873\/files\/9780771045165_s600x595.jpg?v=1779817746","url":"https:\/\/massivebookshop.com\/products\/9780771045165","provider":"MASSIVE BOOKSHOP","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
