WAH! cover

Cynthia Rogerson’s mother is dying. Often.

Travelling between her home in Scotland and California, as she spends time at her mother’s bedside Cynthia recalls her youthful adventures: living in a squat, train-hopping, hitchhiking and all the other things she never told her mother.

Wonderfully witty and refreshingly candid, Wah! is an unflinching look at life in all its uncertain and messy glory.

‘A rich, lyrical text that will show the tears at the heart of things.’


I devoured Wah! A delicious memoir from the from the much loved ex director of Moniack Mhor


Encompasses all the different kinds of love.


As poignant as it is hilarious.


Witty, rich in revelation, and elegantly written.


Wah! is both moving and funny, with a wonderfully light touch - completely charming.


A selfie of a tearaway with a real writer in control of the chaos. A wonderful and courageous book.


This sparkling memoir is a revelation.


Witty, compassionate, playful, scarily honest.


Her wisecracks skewer even the bleakest moments.


Laugh-aloud funny, poignant, wicked, shallow and profound.
