The Story
Through the lowest hardship and poverty, author Albert Fortridge clung to his childhood teacher Mrs Watson's words — the 6 kindest anyone had uttered about him, “Wow Albert, you really can write!”. The world had her to thank for that passing phrase which helped Albert endure and 65 years later resulted in his masterpiece which became the 21st century's greatest novel.
