A story of war and grief, jealousy and madness, mischief and fierce love.\r\n\r\nKeggie Carew grew up in the gravitational field of an unorthodox father who lived on his wits and dazzling charm. As his memory begins to fail, she embarks on a quest to unravel his story and soon finds herself in a far more astonishing and consuming place than she had bargained for. \r\n\r\nDadland is a manhunt. Keggie takes us on a spellbinding journey, in peace and war, into surprising and shady corners of history, her childhood and the poignant breakdown of her family, the corridors of dementia and beyond. Part-detective story, part-memoir, part-history book, it is a celebration of the technicolour life an impossible, irresistible, unstoppable man.\r\n\r\nKeggie Carew has lived in London, West Cork, Barcelona, Texas and New Zealand. Before writing, her career was in contemporary art. Dadland is her debut book. It won the 2016 Costa Biography Award.\r\n\r\nRecorded live at 5x15 Bristol in March 2017.\r\n\r\n5x15 brings together five outstanding individuals to tell of their lives, passions and inspirations. There are only two rules - no scripts and only 15 minutes each.\r\n\r\nLearn more about 5x15 events: 5x15stories.com\r\nTwitter: www.twitter.com/5x15stories\r\nFacebook: www.facebook.com/5x15stories\r\nInstagram: www.instagram.com/5x15stories![\"\"/](\"http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/5x15stories/~4/Ck3j2jhoWFc\")
