JOURNEY IS HOME

In this clear and absorbing memoir John Sam Jones writes of a life lived on the edge. It's a story of journeys and realisation, of acceptance and joy. From a boyhood on the coast of Wales to a traumatic period as an undergraduate inAberystwyth, and on to a scholarship at Berkley on the San Francisco Bay as the AIDSepidemic began to take hold before returning to Liverpool and north Wales to work inchaplaincy, education and sexual health.A journey of becoming a writer and chroniclerof his experiences with award-winning books and the somewhat reluctant compulsionto become a campaigner for LGBT rights in Wales. The adventure of running a guesthouse in Barmouth where he eventually became Mayor with his husband, a Germanacademic, whom he had married after a long partnership. Just days after European Referendum they put the business on the market...and thenmoved to Germany. John is still on that journey.
