A sheep bleats. The smell of hay tickles her nose. The twang of a guitar and crack of a snare carry on the breeze.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIt's the late 1970s and Tiff lives with her mum, Joan, at Rockfield, the iconic recording studios. This place of legend, where some of the most famous rock albums of all time were recorded, is the background to a freewheeling, ever-changing whirlwind of a childhood. Tiff's days are spent running around the farm, making friends with local wildlife and helping out with the endless array of dishes her mum creates to keep the bands fed. She's looking for a dog, she's looking for a father; but the one constant throughout is her and Joan, building an unconventional family in the most unlikely of locations.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-text-bold a-text-italic\"\u003eMy Family and Other Rock Stars \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-text-bold\"\u003eis Tiff's remarkable, truly unique story of growing up in a rural idyll, of Cordon Bleu cookery and of a childhood where the chances of bumping into Freddie Mercury playing piano, or a group of Hell's Angels turning up to record for Lemmy, or even the hope of David Bowie appearing, were as normal as hopscotch and homework.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-size-small a-text-italic\"\u003eMy Family and Other Rock Stars \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-size-small\"\u003ewas the \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-size-small a-text-italic\"\u003eSunday Times \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-size-small\"\u003ebook of the week 12.05.2024\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Little, Brown Book Group","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45848029397143,"sku":"9780349727554","price":455.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9780349727554.webp?v=1769297439","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/my-family-and-other-rock-stars-gloriously-tender-and-funny-a-bohemian-rhapsody-of-her-very-own-sunday-times-book-of-the-year-9780349727554","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
