Boy from the Valleys: My Unexpected Journey

At 46 years old, some might argue that Luke Evans is too young to write his memoirs, because what could he possibly have to tell, right? Wrong! This Boy From the Valleys has quite a lot to tell about his unexpected but remarkable journey. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

Luke doesn't rush straight in to tell us how he became famous, he doesn't even begin with his birth. Rather, he lays the foundation, by telling us how his parents became Jehovah's Witnesses.

What follows is an emotional account of a childhood lived as per the rules of this religion, the bullying he had to endure at school, and the anguish he felt when he realised he was gay and what this would mean for him and his family.

Throughout this memoir, Luke remains humble. He may have found success in Hollywood very quickly, but he hasn't forgotten his roots and his humble beginnings. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

Boy From the Valleys is a wonderful book, very informative and interesting. This is one autobiography that is well worth a read. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿
