World Book Day 3 March, 2022
In 1960, my father, John Cushnan, left our Belfast home, his wife and seven young children and vanished, The next we heard of him was when we were told he had died at 57 in 1982, in Clapham, London. In his Clapham years he reinvented himself as John Kelly from Derry. Apart from anything else, he left us with a mystery of 22 missing years. This is a story of his cowardly abandonment of his family and of my heroic mother, Rita, who raised seven children single-handedly.
