Chris Bryant has lived a rich and at times challenging life, while every memoir is an attempt to narrative ones own story I did get a sense that the arch of the perpetual outsider at times rang a little hollow from this public school educated, Oxford graduate, Minister of State.
But the navigation of the Church of England as a gay man was of particular interest for me, Chris Bryant is two decades my senior and in ways the Church of his youth was a more accommodating space than it was for me and definitely than it is today. Yet that accommodation also created the space for inappropriate behaviours and sexual predators – which Chris Bryant acknowledges without casting people as irredeemable.
